Pharaoh Sources
First Dynasty
Sources for the Length of Pharaonic Reigns
of Old Kingdom Egypt - these are all also Star Realms. The match of kings for each line is mine and corrects some errors by Egyptologists in matching the pharaoh sources.

Turin Canon, Sakkara, Abydos
Manetho (Julius Africanus and Eusebius), Eratosthenes, Barbarus

xxx = destroyed hieroglyph ----- = no king given
The numbers below (e.g. 62, 60, 62 for Menes) are the Pharaoh's length of reign and name according to that source.
Different colors alert to significant differences in data or names.

Note: The data of the above sources
related to the Pharaohs' post-mortem star realms,
(which may have had some actual relation to the length of human rule).
The lengths of "reign" given by contradictory ancient sources
differ according to which stars were used for calculations.

The most complete is the data of Julius Africanus
(using Manetho's lost original).
