Manetho

Manetho, also known as Manethon of Sebennytos, was an Egyptian historian and priest from Sebennytos who lived during the Ptolematic era, circa 3rd century BC. Manetho recorded Aegyptiaca (History of Egypt) and has had The Book of Sothis, an astrological work, attributed to him falsely. His work is of great interest to Egyptologists, and is often used as evidence for the chronology of the reigns of Pharoahs.
