The accounts created by this historian, which are largely corroborated by the Turin Canon, include a description of the wicked tyrant Ochthois being devoured by an animal in Heracleopolis. A chronology created by this historian is interrupted after the Saite Renaissance by a line that includes Bardiya, who hailed from (*) Persia. This writer's works were the main source used by Flinders Petrie to date his findings, and were the most important such source until the discoveries of Jean François Champollion.
