Fragment of the Kings List from the mortuary temple of Sety I at Abydos (which was completed by his son Ramesses II); EA 117.

The list omits the names of the Kings associated with the Amarna Period, such as Amenhotep IV (Akhenaten), Tutankhamun, and Horemheb. The upper row shows the kings of the 7th and 8th Dynasties (which are very rare), the middle row shows kings for the 12th, 18th, and 19th Dynasties; the bottom row has the cartouches of Ramesses II.
