class="" data-astro-cid-vannxnsq> <p class="lead py-4" data-astro-cid-vannxnsq> The royal titulary of the Egyptian Pharaohs was the standard naming convention taken by the kings of Ancient Egypt. It symbolises their supremacy and holy might. The names were sometimes altered during the reign to mark an important event. </p> <img src="/.netlify/images?url=_astro%2Fph2.D6mufndU.webp" class="ph mx-auto block md:float-left md:mx-0" loading="eager" alt="A drawing of a pharaoh" srcset="" data-astro-cid-vannxnsq width="400" height="413" decoding="async"> <p data-astro-cid-vannxnsq> The knowledge to read and write <a href="/ancient-egypt/hieroglyphs" data-astro-cid-vannxnsq>hieroglyphs</a> was lost by 450 CE, and would remain so until the 1820s, when the Rosetta Stone was deciphered. Like in Arabic and Hebrew, hieroglyphic writing does not normally indicate vowels, and use sounds not common in most European languages. Since the ancient Egyptian language has been dead for two millennia, the knowledge of how the writing was actually pronounced can only be <em data-astro-cid-vannxnsq>estimated</em>. When transcribing Egyptian words, the general rule among Egyptologists was to use the pronunciation clues provided by <i data-astro-cid-vannxnsq>Coptic</i>, otherwise they would add an 'e' between consonants until they got something pronounceable to European ears. </p> <p data-astro-cid-vannxnsq> Early Egyptology was dominated by French, English and German scholars, who naturally wrote mainly in their own languages. The transcription of names was still new and was done individually by each scholar, which meant that names were read and transcribed differently. As knowledge of the Egyptian language grew, so did the names. For example, a pharaoh first known as <i data-astro-cid-vannxnsq>Amuntuankh</i> evolved into the name <i data-astro-cid-vannxnsq>Tutankhamun</i>, and is still spelt slightly differently in various languages (Toutânkhamon, Tutanchamun, Tutankamón etc). </p> <p data-astro-cid-vannxnsq> The sun god of Egypt is <strong data-astro-cid-vannxnsq>Ra</strong>. In order to maintain consistency, the hieroglyphic sun-disk ⊙ (Gardiner-sign N5) will be transliterated as <i data-astro-cid-vannxnsq>Ra</i> in these pages, despite the fact that the use of <i data-astro-cid-vannxnsq>Re</i> is commonly used in the names of many pharaohs. This is probably(?) due to nothing else but the longstanding widespread use of <i data-astro-cid-vannxnsq>-re</i>. For example: the pharaohs <b data-astro-cid-vannxnsq>Ra</b>messes and Neferka<b data-astro-cid-vannxnsq>re</b> both contain the sun-sign, one as <i data-astro-cid-vannxnsq>Ra</i> the other as <i data-astro-cid-vannxnsq>Re</i>. </p> <p data-astro-cid-vannxnsq> <a href="/ancient-egypt/titles-and-epithets" data-astro-cid-vannxnsq>The fivefold royal titulary</a> consisted of the <i data-astro-cid-vannxnsq>Horus</i>, <i data-astro-cid-vannxnsq>Nebty</i>, <i data-astro-cid-vannxnsq>Golden Horus</i>, <i data-astro-cid-vannxnsq>Throne</i>, and <i data-astro-cid-vannxnsq>Birth names</i>. It established the king's authority and legitimacy and served as a mission statement for his reign. Some pharaohs are only known by one or two of the five names, and many remain to be assigned to the correct king. There are also several still unidentified names of the pharaohs. </p> <div class="" data-astro-cid-vannxnsq> <h2 class="pb-3 pt-8 text-center" data-astro-cid-vannxnsq>List of the Pharaohs</h2> <p data-astro-cid-vannxnsq> The pharaohs of ancient Egypt, from predynastic times up to and including the roman emperors, who were not pharaohs as such, but are included here because some of their names were inscribed on monuments using hieroglyphs. The <a href="/ancient-egypt/chronology" data-astro-cid-vannxnsq>chronological order</a> of the pharaohs is difficult to determine because it has been more than 2,000 years since the last one ruled. </p> <p class="pb-8" data-astro-cid-vannxnsq> It is like trying to complete a jigsaw puzzle with half of the pieces are missing, with pieces from other puzzles mixed in &mdash; all while wearing a blindfold and mittens to put the pieces together. Moreover, as new research is conducted, the order may be subject to change. This is a fundamental principle that applies to <i data-astro-cid-vannxnsq>all</i> Egyptian dynasties. </p> </div> </div> <div data-astro-cid-vannxnsq><h2 class="text-center py-3">Predynastic
