摘要
希罗多德《历史》记载的埃及王表与曼涅托《埃及史》存在诸多重合之处,二者均为现代学者全面考察古埃及历史不可或缺的文献资料。经比较可以看出,曼涅托所记王表历时更久且王名众多,希罗多德的记载虽详尽但也存在错误。希罗多德的笔误固然与其写作目的有关,更重要的是与其史料来源有关。希罗多德"有闻必录"的史料筛选原则与相对理性的史观,使其记述的埃及王表总体上仍不失其重要的史料价值。
As most important literature sources for modern Egyptologists, Herodotus and Manetho respectively recorded an Egyptian King-list in their Histories and Aegyptiaca. It can be seen from the comparison that Manetho narrated longer history and more king-names, while Herodotus provided more details and influenced more other classical historians. Although Herodotus misunderstood some historical sources and made some errors due to his selection of materials, his relatively rational methodology and view of history helped to make his Egyptian King-list an overall valuable document eventually.
