The Fourteenth Dynasty was extremely fragmented, with local rulers all over the delta region. Adding to the confusion, many Thirteenth and Fifteenth Dynasty kings overlapped with the Fourteenth Dynasty. As many as 76 kings may have ruled during this short period, of which the primary Saite kings are listed below.
