How many pharohs were named ramesses?
There are 256 recorded Pharaohs from 'Dynasty 0' (Archaic Period 3150-2686 BCE) until Dynasty 31 (343-332 BCE) but many Pharaohs are classified as 'unknown' and there may have been many more. Ruling Queens and female Pharaohs are not often counted in the 256+ figure above and this may increase the number to well over 275.

What was ramesses ll known for?
Principally his "Ramesseum" or Museum to Ramesses. His name is a title really. It means "The Moses of Ra". Moses is an Egyptian word for 'born of the river' or something like that. Egyptologists guess these things but we know Moses of Israel was named that way by the Egyptian royal princess who found Moses. She was probably a daughter of Amenemhat I or II of the 12th dynasty. But Ramesses II of Egypt really lived much later in around 650 BC. Officially, Egyptologists say he ruled Egypt in circa 1250 BC. A hundred years ago they said he ruled Egypt in 1500 BC. That was because he was assumed to be pharaoh of Egypt when Moses led Israel out of Egypt at the Great Exodus of 1485 BC (The Bible's effective date for Exodus). Internal problems with Egyptian chronology then forced Egyptologists to shift Ramesses from 1500 BC to 1250. Theologians then complied and shifted Moses of Israel from 1485 BC (when he was 80 years old) to 1250 BC. However, the Egyptologists dates are wrong by 500 to 600 years for the 18th and 19th dynasties. They know this but do not tell the public because of the embarrassment. Tutenkhamen, last king of the 18th dynasty was radio-carbon dated to 800 BC not 1300 BC. Since objects like his were found in completely uncontaminated tombs, the carbon dating results for Tutenkhamen are regarded as about the only truly reliable dates we have and they confirm how erroneous the Egyptian chronology is. Egyptologists are already shifting the dates for the Pyramids from 3000 BC to 2500 BC, although they will have to reduce those dates by another 200 or 300 years. Egyptology is in a crisis like the Banks in 2009. Ramesses II is thus the "Pharaoh Necho" the Bible mentions. The Egyptians would not allow the ramesside kings to name themselves "Pharaoh" which probably means Leader of Africa so they called themselves the "Moses of Ra" suggesting that they were followers of Ra but not necessarily Egyptian. In fact they were probably descendants of Egyptians who had migrated back to Egypt but with Greek as their mother tongue not Semitic. Who these 'ramessides' were is anyone's guess at the moment. When the Jewish scribes of the Bible re-copied the scrolls after returning from Babylon (500 BC), the city of Pithom and the land of Goshen were then known as The City of Ramesses and the Land of Ramesses. However, Jewish refugees had helped re-build Pithom-Ramesses in 600 BC. That meant the scribes could note in Exodus 1:11 that the Israelites "built for Pharaoh the cities of Pithom and Raamses" or "Pithom (Raamses)". This means that the Israelites buit two "Capital cities" for Pharaoh on the same site in two different eras (1500 and 600 BC) NOT two cities in two different sites in the same era (1500 BC). There is a subtle twist one can identify in the Hebrew text. That twist was missed by all the scholars and that's why the dates for Ramesses II and most other Egyptian kings are wrong. The entire political history has to be completely re-written. Obviously Egyptologists cannot bear to think about this and that's why there is so much chaos everywhere because nonsense in one area of knowledge will export itself like cancer to every other area. In effect we should not ask "What was Ramesses II known for?". He is probably the most well-known ancient Egyptian king because he lived only 100 years before Socrates, 200 years before Alexander the Macedonian (Serbian). As an elderly king, he was a contemporary of the great Jewish prophet Jeremiah who named him Necho (or The Brassy One). It's the false date, i.e., When? that is of interest. And therein lies a huge tail of ineptness and false Academy.
