Pharaohs

Egyptian history is broken down into kingdoms, or periods. These are logical breaks in the dynasties based on archeological periods, architecture, etc. It's probably easier to view the pharaohs either by dynasty or by name, but I've included below links to the major kingdons as a starting point.
From each kingdom page, you can walk through the chronology, dynasty by dynasty or pharaoh by pharaoh, or jump around to see who you are interested in. For a complete list, see the pharaoh index to this site to find a particular pharaoh.
