Palermo Stone Kings List

Part of Palermo king list
Palermo Stone Kings List is the earliest kings list. The Palermo Stone was engrossed on both sides of a large separate temple stela, only a fragment of which continues nowadays. Egyptologists believe that the intact rock would have offered a record of every last king who ruled preexisting to the 5th Dynasty, taking on some Predynastic Period ones, as well as a complete record of the events of their rule (such as expeditions of different kinds, military victories, and constructing projects).
