Surviving Year 26 inscription reign of Darius I in Wadi Hammamat quarries

Egyptian Inscription by the Royal Architect Khnemibre, son of Ahmose-saneit in the 26th year of King Darius I of Persia.

Year 26, Shemu IIII, under the Dual King Darius, living for all time

The text of Khnemibre’s inscription extends back 22 generations (with none missing to erosion) to the well attested vizier Rahotep of Egypt of the first half of the reign of Ramesses II, synchronising with a 20 year per generation timespan for this recorded genealogy of the Royal Architects.
