Have you read the other comments Max? The text doesn't actually say "Queen" Khenut so it may be a different Khenut. As I noted in my other comment, the 5th dynasty is extremely obscure, a mere footnote in history from what we have on it, so it would be a huge waste of a setting if they chose it. There's enough room for creative freedoms in even the reigns of the most famous pharaohs and exciting events, like the Egyptian war of liberation against the Hyksos in the Second Intermediate Period or the turmoil from Akhenaten's attempt to impose monotheism. There's literally almost no material whatsoever from the 5th dynasty to work with, and it was such an early time, we wouldn't be able to explore the full glory of ancient Egypt either.

I think it makes sense that either we get to explore different time periods of Egypt or that is a different Khenut.
