| Peftjau-auwybast | 740 | 725 | |

Dynasty XXIII (Tanis): 710?-665?
This is Manetho's Dynasty XXIII, which rules at Tanis between the end of Dynasty XXII and the rise of Dynasty XXVI under Psammetichus I. The following kings attested archaeologically at Tanis seem to belong to this group (sequence unknown):
| Sekhemkare [. . .] | ||
| Shepseskare-Irnere Gemnefkhonsubak | ||
| Neferkare-Pepi [. . .] | ||
| Sehetepib(en)re Pedubast II | ca. 665 |
In its earlier years, this dynasty held Thebes only intermittently and presumably had a safer headquarters to the south; after 787, Dynasty XXII is no longer attested at Thebes. By the time of Osorkon III, this dynasty ruled as far north as Heracleopolis.
Pedubaste I
(Usermare-setepenamun)(Petubastis)
828-803 B.C.
Pedubaste I was the first king of the Twenty-third Dynasty. He is mentioned several times in the inscriptions at Karnak. Pedubaste is thought to have been the son of the high priest of Amun, Harsiese.
