Salitis in Tour Egypt
SALITIS
15TH DYNASTY -
Salitis was the 1st king of the 15th Dynasty. Northern Egypt
was under Heksus rulers throughout the Dynasty. The Heksus are
the Asiatics that invaded through Sinai and settled in the
Delta. The Heksus controlled all the Nile Delta and Northern
Egypt. By time, they got more powerful and set their own
Dynasties ( from the 14th till the end of the 16th Dynasty).
Some scholars mentione Salitis's name as "Sultan". This is an
Arabic translation of the phrase 'powerful king' because the
king was considered to be the founder of the Great Heksus
Dynasty. Salitis captured Memphis and placed himself in higher
rank than any of the royal families in the Capitol.
