The Pharaoh They Don’t Want You to Know: The Untold Story of The 25th Dynasty is a YouTube video by Mr. Imhotep that tells the story of the Nubian kings who ruled Egypt for nearly a century, from 744 to 656 BC. The 25th Dynasty, also known as the Kushite Empire or the Black Pharaohs, originated in the Kingdom of Kush, located in present-day northern Sudan and Upper Egypt. They reunited Lower Egypt, Upper Egypt, and Kush, creating the largest Egyptian empire since the New Kingdom. They also assimilated into Egyptian culture by reaffirming ancient religious traditions, temples, and artistic forms, while introducing some unique aspects of Kushite culture. The video claims that this dynasty is often overlooked or misrepresented by historians because of their African origin and challenges the conventional narrative of Egyptian history.
