And now a few questions:
1. What's the conventional wisdom on the length of Sheshonq I's reign?
Manetho gives him 21 years, and the Silsileh quarry inscription is dated to
his 21st year. However Wente and Redford claim that he ruled 33 years.
While there were four kings named Sheshonq, I presume you mean Sheshonq II. The length of his rule is certain open to question. Clayton just assigns him "c. 890".

Yes, there is the triumphant relief at Karnak, partially damaged, showing the Canaanite town he captured.
