Egyptian God-Kings
The Egyptian God–Kings have been equated with the original ten Kings of Atlantis by R. Cedric Leonard. He points out how Manetho, the Egyptian historian writing in the 2nd century BC, refers to the Egyptian god-kings having reigned “in a foreign land” thousands of years before Plato.

Joseph Robert Jochmans identified(b) similar parallels between the recorded dynasties of the ancient Middle East.
