List of Egyptian viceroys of Kush
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lower Nubian Kush was a province of Egypt from the 16th century BCE to eleventh century BCE. During this period it was ruled by a viceroy who reported directly to the Egyptian Pharaoh. It is believed that the Egyptian 25th dynasty were descendants of these viceroys and so were the dynasties that ruled independent Kush until the fourth century CE. Below is the list as assembled by George Reisner.
