埃及第二十六王朝，或称塞易斯王朝。亚述人入侵埃及之后，把埃及交给了普萨美提克一世统治，在亚述发生战乱时，他于是就把他对亚述的关系消除，雇佣来自希腊的雇佣军抵抗亚述。在亚述沦陷之后，他和他的后继者尝试重新创建埃及在西亚的霸权，但被在尼布甲尼撒二世统治下的新巴比伦帝国赶走。有了希腊雇佣兵的帮助，阿普里伊成功抵挡了巴比伦的攻击，但是雅赫摩斯二世在起义中把他推翻。最后，埃及在公元前525年被波斯占领。

The Twenty-sixth Dynasty of Egypt (also written Dynasty XXVI or Dynasty 26) was the last native dynasty to rule Egypt before the Persian conquest in 525 BC (although others followed). The dynasty's reign (664–525 BC) is also called the Saite Period after the city of Sais, where its pharaohs had their capital, and marks the beginning of the Late Period of ancient Egypt.
