“…Both books contain exhaustive (at the time of writing) lists of attestations of royal names from the Second Intermediate Period. The key findings made by Ryholt were critically evaluated by Daphna Ben-Tor, Susan J. Allen, and James P. Allen (Ben-Tor et al 1999), and important additions to Ryholt's list of attestations were recently presented by Marcel Marée (2009). A critical overview of the chronology of the Second Intermediate Period was given by Detlef Franke (2013: 7-13).…”

In the Second Intermediate Period (late 13th to 17th Dynasty), the territories that had been ruled by the centralized Egyptian state-including Lower Nubia-were divided between the kingdom of Kerma, the Theban kingdom, the kingdom of Avaris, and possibly other little known political entities. A gap in the written documentation calls for a wide use of sigillographic and archaeological evidence in the reconstruction of the history of this period. Material culture, art, and administration developed independently in different parts of Egypt due to a lack of a centralized state. In the Theban kingdom, the local administration of the Late Middle Kingdom persisted in a reduced form, as attested by private stelae, statues, and tomb inscriptions.

“…108 A scarab seal impression of Maaibra was also unearthed at the fort in a disputable context assigned to the late Thirteenth or early Eighteenth Dynasty. 109 Ukma contained piriform Tell el-Yahudiyah juglets of the late Thirteenth to early Fifteenth Dynasty as well as Second Intermediate Period scarabs, one bearing the name of Maaibra Sheshi and several portraying Levantine designs. 110 The southernmost reach of such northerly products appears to be Kerma, the administrative centre of the Kushite kingdom, where late Thirteenth Dynasty to Second Intermediate Period Tell el-Yahudiyah ware of piriform shape, miniature shape and naturalistic design were found.…”

The Second Intermediate Period is H[HPSOL¿HG E\ WKH GLYLVLRQ RI (J\SW LQWR VHYHUDO dynasties. As current research proposes, those who held administrative control in the north were of Near Eastern origin, their power likely stemming from commercial ventures initiated in the preceding Middle Kingdom when dynamic trade networks spanned the region. The resulting cultural encounters were complex and multifaceted, with various groups and ideas crossing borders. Yet, shifts in power from the Twelfth Dynasty to the Second Intermediate Period would have feasibly affected such encounters. The evidence examined here focusses on Levantine elements in Nubia: the presence of people of Near Eastern DQFHVWU\ DQG SURGXFWV RI /HYDQWLQH LQÀXHQFH WKDW crossed the southern borders of Egypt. It concludes with observations on shifts in the nature of these encounters, and how such shifts could be connected to other political and cultural developments associated with the fall of the Middle Kingdom and the beginning of the Second Intermediate Period.
