>>>I couldn't find anything on Shishak, but Tanis was a fictional city, either that or
forgotten completely. Anything can happen...<<<

actually, Tanis is a real city, located in the delta of Egypt. it was mentioned by Napoleons' soldiers in 1798, but wasn't mapped or excavated seriously until 1939. or, if you believe the movies, 1936 :)

with a little help from
my book on Egypt,

Michael
