Talk:Shoshenq I

Shishak

I have changed the redirect at Shishak to point to Shishaq rather than Shoshenq I, on the theory that this will be less confusing to readers. Feel free to discuss the change in this space. If you revert the redirect back, please justify doing so here or at Talk:Shishaq. Chick Bowen 04:46, 29 September 2005 (UTC)

Dialogue

The dialogue from Raiders of the Lost Ark is incorrect, mainly the last quote. --DanielCD (talk) 01:26, 26 April 2012 (UTC)

Shawshank

Some information regarding the connection (or not) of this name with Sanskrit “Shawshank” (moon) would be adviseable. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.93.208.34 (talk) 02:13, 19 May 2020 (UTC)

Name in tifinagh

Shenshonqs Name in tifinagh should get added since he was libyan 91.59.127.17 (talk) 15:01, 18 January 2023 (UTC)

"Shoshenq" is not recorded in Numidian at all. Since modern uses of the name in Neo-Tifinagh are irrelevant (or as relevant as adding Chinese, Devanagari, etc. or any other writing system where his name is not attested in antiquity), there is no reason to do so as it would just clutter up the page.

Dubious

The sphinx of a King Shoshenq (Brooklyn 33.586) in the info box is not known to be Shoshenq I specifically. As noted by the museum, "the figure is inscribed for a King Sheshenq, but we cannot be certain which of the five pharaohs named Sheshenq is shown."

Well spotted. I replaced it with a drawing of his relief on the Bubastite portal. Lone-078 (talk) 21:29, 27 February 2023 (UTC)
