CIDE DICTIONARY

hyksosn. [Gr. , fr. Egypt. hikshasu chiefs of the Bedouins, shepherds.].
     A dynasty of Egyptian kings, often called the Shepherd kings, of foreign origin, who, according to the narrative of Manetho, ruled for about 500 years, forming the XVth and XVIth dynasties. It is now considered that the XVIth is merely a double of the XVth dynasty, and that the total period of the six Hyksos kings was little more than 100 years. It is supposed that they were Asiatic Semites.  [Webster 1913 Suppl.]
