By C.R. Ashbury

Who were the Hyksos, and how did a group of foreign rulers rise to become pharaohs of Egypt?

For centuries, their story has been surrounded by mystery, controversy, and legend. They arrived in Egypt as outsiders, built a powerful kingdom in the Nile Delta, ruled as kings, and were eventually driven into exile. Yet their influence changed the course of Egyptian history forever.

What you're about to discover will change how you see one of the most fascinating periods of the ancient world.

In Hyksos: Pharaohs in Exile, journey deep into the world of ancient Egypt during a time of political upheaval, migration, cultural exchange, and war. Follow the rise of the Hyksos from their earliest presence in the eastern Delta to the creation of a dynasty that challenged Egypt's traditional rulers and reshaped the future of the kingdom.
