Every Tyrant Trashes History

Sakkara king list reveals after Pepi II and before Mentuhotep II the 7-10 and part of the 11th dynasty listed kings have no history--they really don't exist. Abydos king list reveals after Amenemhet IV and before Ahmose the 13-17th Egyptian dynasties are phony. Eliminate the false chronology and what happens? Abraham visits Pepi II and God plagues Egypt Genesis 12:17. Plagues bring down the Memphis dynasty and Thebes dynasty arises to power. Amenemhet IV died the same year as Joseph died. Ahmose of Thebes brought an end to the Amenemhet-Senusert prosperous dynasty. Ahmose destroyed all records of Joseph, so a pharaoh would arise who knew not Joseph BEFORE Moses was born. Exodus 1:8 Still Egyptian historians let the Manetho's phony dynasties stand for 2200 years unchallenged. Manetho rewrote Egyptian history much like Arafat wrote about a phony Palestinian tribe which did not exist until after the Six Day War in 1967 C.E.
