They were the kings of ancient Egypt. The common people believed that they were the human form of god'Horus'. They married within the family, usually their own sister, because goods were inherited through the female line even if women couldn't usually be the Pharaoh.
There was only one woman Pharaoh in ancient Egyptian times, soon succeeded by Greeks and the Romans the women pharaoh was Hatshepsut.
There were three fairly stable periods with regular dynastic succession of the Pharaoh. These are called the Old Kingdom, the Middle Kingdom and the New Kingdom by people that study Egyptian history. Although those were the periods there were also elder time periods with them 'intermediate'.
