Dynasty XII
Manetho gives no names for his Dynasty XIII. According to Ryholt (1997, 72), the Turin Canon named no less than 57 kings for this dynasty. Many of them are obscure, and their order is at times disputed, but the following have left more than e.g. single scarabs or seal impressions in the textual record
Dynasty XIII
Manetho gives no names for this dynasty, which appears to consist of minor rulers of Egyptian and Asiatic origin confined to the Nile Delta. Monumental king-lists ignore them, but according to Ryholt (1997, 97) Turin Canon once named no less than 56 kings for the Dynasty. Few can be confirmed from textual records, which instead provide a plethora of other, usually singularly attested names from the Delta.
Dynasty XIV
Manetho names six Hyksos kings, but the names are difficult to match with the textual record. Turin Canon once also had six names, but only one, that of Khamudy, is preserved. The standard reconstruction of these kings on basis of the material and textual record
Dynasty XV
