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

I'm here to request this article be moved to Shell (pharaoh). According to the article, Finger Snail is preserved as the name in Tomb U-j. However, in Tomb U-j, the name is not preserved. Rather, his name was Shell, and this is helped by the name of other wikis, as the Portuguese and Russian wikis name him as such. Veristune (talk) 23:37, 26 October 2025 (UTC)Reply
