Currently a difficult task due to the lack of consensus in the greater community over an accurate chronology, but definitely something to keep coming back to
In the meanwhile: it’s a good policy to have a survey of dates from sources in articles about time periods; for smaller mentions (ex. at the start of “Atenism under Akhenaten” here: “Amenhotep IV, the son of Amenhotep III, was crowned king c. 1353 BC.”) circa is your best friend
Discussion
Creating a separate article for Predynastic Egypt from Prehistoric Egypt starting with the Badarian culture where many overviews begin
Data sorting
Looking through sources for quotes and data that can be added to relevant articles
At last, a relatively unproblematic New Kingdom name! Hallelujah! Google gives:
Amenhotep - 23,400
Amonhotep - 1,530
Amenophis - 16,000
which is great because all Egyptologists use Amenhotep. I have seen on Wike some instance of Amenotep but I think this must be a typo, as Google has only 76 for this variant. Noel 23:31, 20 Aug 2003 (UTC)
