Who's the King? An Image of the Egyptian King According to Non-Egyptian Evidence
Original language description
In the Egyptian realm the king and his authority represent one of the indisputable pillars that support the infallible functioning of the system, spreading both into divine and human spheres. A glimpse at the figure of the king and his authority throughthe prism of Egyptian written evidence provides us with a multi-layered image, depending mostly on the character and purpose of the respective texts. It is the aim of this paper to provide the audience with the opposite perspective - to demonstrate how the Egyptian king is seen and presented from the outside. A series of typologically different documents (Akkadian, Hittite, Ugaritic) from the Late Bronze Age mentioning the king of Egypt are discussed in order to obtain a representative portrayal of theking and his authority towards the neighbouring political entities.
