The Abydos King List, also called the Abydos Table is a list of the names of seventy-six kings and pharaohs of Ancient Egypt, found on the walls of the Temple of Seti I at Abydos, Egypt. It consists of three rows of thirty-eight cartouches on each row. The upper two rows contain names of the kings, while the third row merely repeats Seti I's throne name and praenomen.
Besides providing the order of the Old Kingdom rulers (albeit often obviously incorrectly)[citation needed], it is the sole source to date of the names of many of the rulers of the Seventh and Eighth Dynasties, so the list is valued highly for that reason.
This list omits the names of many pharaohs who were 'erased' from this revised history - such as Hatshepsut, Akhenaten, Smenkhkare, Tutankhamen, and Ay.
