Pedigree: Cheops (Khufu Kheops) (PHARAOH) of EGYPT

The PEDIGREE of

Cheops (Khufu Kheops) (PHARAOH) of EGYPT

reigned 23 years; 1st/2nd of 4th Dynasty; built Great Pyramid at Giza, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World; aka Khnum Khufu

Note: The grandeur of ancient Egypt comprises three eras: The Old Kingdom (Dynasties 3,4,5,6), the Middle Kingdom (Dynasties 11,12) and the New Kingdom (Dynasties 18,19,20). Kings of the other dynasties did not rule a united Egypt and are poorly documented.
(Notes: more than one construction of dates exist, and I mix them in these notes. The Old Kingdom predates the mythical population of the world by Noah's sons, so the Egyptian dates in Babylonian myth will not make sense.)
