Abstract
This article offers an examination of the nature and functions of (Egyptian) coregencies and discusses indicators for New Kingdom coregencies in particular. The focus lies on typical types of evidence, such as double dates and pictorial sources, and their applicability during this period. These considerations are put to the test by a case study in which the established criteria are applied to the three coregencies attributed to Akhenaten (with Amenhotep III, Smenkhkare, and Neferneferuaten).
