This
Dynasty is partly contemporary with both the XXII and the XXIII Dynasties.
Ruling from Sais in the western Delta, its first king, Tefnakht, originally had
some success expanding his authority into northern Upper Egypt, but was
eventually repulsed by the invading Kushite kings of the XXV Dynasty. It may be noteworthy that both kings of this dynasty used Throne names that harked back to ancient ancestors. Tefnakht called himself The noble one belong- ing to Re (Spss ra), recalling Shepseskare of the V Dynasty, who was the Dual King, The noble one belonging to the ka of Re (Spss kA ra). Similarly, Bakenrenef (Bokchoris) was the Enduring one belonging to the ka of Re, (wAH kA ra), using the same throne name as the X Dynasty’s Wahkare Khety V.
