Hmmm. Good point. For all we know Horemheb had a distant claim to the throne
even if he wasn't a 'King's Son'. Also, for all we know, he was Aye's hand picked
successor not his rival. Finally I think it's a mistake to see either the priesthood
or the military as a discrete unit given the Egyptian elite's tendency to hold
offices in both as well as the civil service. I don't think they made the divisions
we do.
