Pedubast II
Pedubast II was a Pharaoh of Egypt associated with the 22nd Dynasty. Not mentioned in all King lists, he is mentioned as a possible son and successor to Shoshenq V by Aidan Dodson and Dyan Hilton in their 2004 book, The Complete Royal Families of Ancient Egypt. They date his reign at about 743-733 BC, between Shoshenq V and Osorkon IV.[1]
Jürgen von Beckerath places Pedubast II within the reign of Piye and in the 23rd Dynasty and proposes a reign of about 736-731 BC for this Egyptian pharaoh. The exact length of Pedubast's II's reign is uncertain.[2]
