Given the question: Information: - Semqen ( also Samuqnu ) was an Hyksos ruler of Lower Egypt during the Second Intermediate Period in the mid 17th century BC. According to Jurgen von Beckerath he was the third king of the 16th Dynasty and a vassal of the Hyksos kings of the 15th Dynasty . This opinion was shared by William C. Hayes and Wolfgang Helck but recently rejected by Kim Ryholt . In his 1997 study of the second intermediate period , Ryholt argues that the kings of the 16th Dynasty ruled an independent Theban realm c. 1650 -- 1580 BC. Consequently , Ryholt sees Semqen as an early Hyksos king of the 15th Dynasty , perhaps its first ruler . This analysis has convinced some egyptologists , such as Darrel Baker and Janine Bourriau , but not others including Stephen Quirke . Semqen 's only contemporary attestation is a brown steatite scarab - seal from Tell el - Yahudiyeh in the Nile Delta . Significantly , the scarab gives him the title of Heka - chasut , '' Ruler of the foreign lands '' , a title exclusively associated with the early Hyksos rulers . Furthermore , the design of the scarab indicates that it was likely produced either during the 14th or the 15th Dynasty , the later being much more probable . The original location of the seal , the title it is inscribed with and its design led Kim Ryholt to propose that Semqen belonged to the early 15th Dynasty , although he also points to the conjectural nature of this proposition . Ryholt further adds that the title Heka - chasut , even if securely dated to the 15th Dynasty , may not have been borne only by the rulers of this dynasty . - Jurgen von Beckerath (19 February 1920 26 June 2016) was a German Egyptologist. He was a prolific writer who has published countless articles in journals such as "Orientalia", "Gottinger Miszellen" (GM), "Journal of the American Research Center in Egypt" (JARCE), "Archiv fur Orientforschung" (AfO), and "Studien zur Altagyptischen Kultur" (SAK) among others. Together with Kenneth Kitchen, he is viewed as one of the foremost scholars on the New Kingdom and the Third Intermediate Period of Egypt. - The Nile ("en-Nl", "an-Nl" "P(h)iaro"; Ancient Egyptian:"'p" and "Iteru"; Biblical Hebrew: , "Ha-Ye'or") is a major north-flowing river in northeastern Africa. It is generally regarded as the longest river in the world, however other conflicting sources cite a 2007 study that gave the title to the Amazon River in South America. The Nile, which is 6,853km (4,258miles) long, is an "international" river as its water resources are shared by eleven countries, namely, Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, Congo-Kinshasa, Kenya, Ethiopia, Eritrea, South Sudan, Sudan and Egypt. In particular, the Nile is the primary water source of Egypt and Sudan. - Egypt (; ', , "Kimi"), officially the Arab Republic of Egypt, is a transcontinental country spanning the northeast corner of Africa and southwest corner of Asia by a land bridge formed by the Sinai Peninsula. Egypt is a Mediterranean country bordered by the Gaza Strip and Israel to the northeast, the Gulf of Aqaba to the east, the Red Sea to the east and south, Sudan to the south, and Libya to the west. Across the Gulf of Aqaba lies Jordan, and across from the Sinai Peninsula lies Saudi Arabia, although Jordan and Saudi Arabia do not share a land border with Egypt. It is the world's only contiguous Afrasian nation. - Lower Egypt ("") is the northernmost region of Egypt: the fertile Nile Delta, between Upper Egypt and the Mediterranean Sea from El Aiyat, south of modern-day Cairo, and Dahshur. - Kim Steven Bardrum Ryholt (born 19 June 1970) is a professor of Egyptology at the University of Copenhagen and a specialist on Egyptian history and literature. He is director of the research center Canon and Identity Formation in the Earliest Literate Societies under the University of Copenhagen Programme of Excellence (since 2008) and Curator of the Papyrus Carlsberg Collection and director of the associated publication (since 1999). - Kenneth Anderson Kitchen (born in 1932) is a British Bible scholar, Ancient Near Eastern historian, and Personal and Brunner Professor Emeritus of Egyptology and Honorary Research Fellow at the School of Archaeology, Classics and Egyptology, University of Liverpool, England. He is one of the leading experts on the ancient Egyptian Ramesside Period (i.e., Dynasties 19-20), and the Third Intermediate Period, as well as ancient Egyptian chronology, having written over 250 books and journal articles on these and other subjects since the mid-1950s. He has been described by "The Times" as "the very architect of Egyptian chronology". - The Third Intermediate Period of Ancient Egypt begins with the death of Pharaoh Ramesses XI in 1070BC, ending the New Kingdom, and ends with the start of the Late Period, for which various points are offered, though it is most often regarded as dating from the foundation of the Twenty-Sixth Dynasty by Psamtik I in 664 BC, following the expulsion of the Nubian rulers of the Twenty-Fifth Dynasty by the Assyrians under King Assurbanipal. - The Journal of the American Research Center in Egypt (JARCE) is an academic journal published by the American Research Center in Egypt. It was established in 1962 to publish research into the art, archaeology, languages, history, and social systems of the Egyptian people. As is usual for Egyptological journals, it accepts articles written in English, French, or German. Over the years a number of Egyptologists have served as editor-in-chief. In 2008, Eugene Cruz-Uribe (California State University, Monterey Bay) succeeded Ann Macy Roth (Howard University) as editor. What is the relationship between 'semqen' and 'pharaoh'?
