Iuput II
De Wikipedia, la enciclopedia libre
de c. 754 a 715 a. C.
Es hijo de Rudamon y ejerce un limitado poder en Leontópolis y Tebas.
En 747 a. C. se forman tres nuevos reinos, además del de Tanis y Leontópolis:
- Heracleópolis Magna, instaurado por Paieftyauembastet, yerno de Rudamon, que adopta la titulatura real.
- Hermópolis Parva, fundado por Nimlot III, en el Bajo Egipto (Delta)
- Licópolis, creado por Padimenti.
Egipto cuenta en esta época con no menos de cinco gobernantes que apenas reconocen a los grandes dirigentes de la provincia del norte.
Iuput II va a aliarse con Osorkon IV (dinastía XXII), luego con Tafnajt (dinastía XXIV), para intentar detener el avance del rey de Napata, Pianjy (dinastía XXV), que organiza la invasión kushita.
Después de Iuput quizá reinaría en Leontópolis Sheshonq VI, pero su existencia es más que dudosa.
Testimonios de su época [editar]
- Bajorrelieve representando al faraón (Brooklyn Museum)
- Una inscripción en un pectoral con el nombre shesh; no obstante puede tratarse de una mención a Sheshonq III.

Iuput II
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Iuput II (also spelled Yuput II) was a ruler of Leontopolis in the Egyptian Delta region of Lower Egypt who existed during the late Third Intermediate Period. He was an ally of Tefnakht of Sais who resisted the invasion of Lower Egypt by the Kushite king Piye.[1] Iuput II ruled during a chaotic time of the Late Intermediate Period when several kings controlled Lower Egypt including Osorkon IV at Bubastis and prince Tefnakht at Sais. Year 21 of Iuput II is attested on a stela from Mendes.[2] The respected English Egyptologist Kenneth Kitchen states that this dated stela which features Smendes, the son of Harnakht and ruler of Mendes, bears Iuput's name but lacks his royal name or prenomen.[3] However, the clear Lower Egyptian provenance of the stela can be associated with several monuments that name "a king Usimare Setepenamun (var. Setepenre], Iuput Si-Bast, from the Delta" which means Iuput II's throne name was Usimare.[4] The Year 21 stela of Iuput II was fully published in 1982.[5]
After Piye defeated Tefnakht's coalition and conquered Lower Egypt around Year 20 of his reign, the Nubian king permitted Iuput II to remain in power as a local governor of Leontopolis according to his Victory Stela from Gebel Barkal.[6]
[edit] Monuments
- A stela of Iuput II is dated to his 21st year. Other monuments or objects from his reign include "a statue-base of Usimare Setepenamun, Iuput Meryamun Si-Bast from Tell el Yahudieh, a glazed plague (see picture) now in the Brooklyn Museum, and a bronze door-hinge...from Tell Moqdam (Leontopolis) bearing identical titles of the king along with [a] mention of the Chief Queen, Tent-kat [...] and some obscure epithets."[7]

Pedubast I). However, later studies have shown that the opposite solution is preferable, i.e. that [the] monuments...with the Usimare prenomen probably belong to Iuput II, not I. In 1975, I also changed over to that option (CdE 52(1977), 42-44, and cf. foreword to Bierbrier, LNKE, 1975, p.x)"
