Amenemopet

Amenemopet (Amenemope II?) was the eighth and penultimate priest-king of the Tanite 21st Dynasty, who ruled from 625 or later to 581 B.C. He succeeded Psusennes II, and was succeeded by Siamun. This king is not acknowledged by the traditional history, due to its faulty chronology.

Amenemopet's parentage or children are not known to the revised history.

In 625 B.C., Amenemopet succeeded Psusennes II (although this may have happened later, with a different predecessor). He kept good relations with his southern counterparts, Menkheperre Piankhi, Smendes II and Pinudjem II. Little otherwise is known about his reign of less than 44 years. He died in 581 B.C. and passed the throne on to his successor Siamun.
