History


Takelot was originally appointed High Priest of Amun at Thebes by his father (who spread around the important jobs amongst his family). Takelot III continued the practice, making two of his sons, Djedptahiefankh and Osorkon High Priests and declaring his younger brother, Rudamon, as heir.

THere are some chronologies that include Osorkon IV as a pharaoh, but he is not included in any of the standard lsits.
