## Bio

Hedjkheperre Setepenre Shoshenq I reigned around 943–922 BC and founded the Twenty-second Dynasty of Egypt, consolidating power after centuries of fragmentation. His military campaigns became legend, documented in stone on the Bubastite Portal at Karnak where his exploits were carved for eternity. He's widely identified as the Shishak of Hebrew scripture, a rare convergence of Egyptian monumentalism and biblical record. The throne passed, but the inscriptions stayed—one civilization's conqueror etched into another's sacred text.
