Waddell's chronology or Waddell's king list is an Ancient Near Eastern chronology developed by the British Laurence Waddell in his book, Egyptian Civilization: Its Sumerian Origin and Real Chronology, published in 1930.

Waddell's correlations have not been generally accepted or well regarded. Conventional lists separate Sargon from Menes by around five hundred years. Commenting on this and other works, the Dictionary of National Biography says "These works, containing much painstaking research and impressive to many, did not win the approval of experts."Moshenka, Gabriel., 'At Variance With Both General and Expert Opinion': The Later Works of Lieutenant-Colonel Professor Laurence Austine Waddell, Bulletin of the History of Archaeology, UCL Institute of Archaeology, 2010.

Waddell's primary chronology was compiled from various Sumerian king lists, Egyptian list of pharaohs, the Bhagavata Purana, Mahabharata, Rigveda and numerous Indus Valley civilization seals and other monuments and relics and sources, some of which he had deciphered himself. It was entitled "Dated Chronological List of Sumerian or Early Aryan Kings from the Rise of Civilization to the Kassi Dynasty" and documented an alleged list of world emperors as follows: No. Date BCE(approximate) Names in Sumerian King Lists and monuments Name On Sumerian Kinglist Indian list names 1 First Sumerian Dynasty3378–3349 BCE Ukusi(kish dynasty) of Ukhu City(Result of translating ka's tomb inscription as Sargon's) or Udu, Uduin, or Odin, Indar, Indra, Induru, Dur, Pur, Sakh, Sagaga, Zagg, Gaur, Alulim, or Adar Ikshvāku or Indra or Sakkō or Pururavas 2 3348–3337 BCE Azag Ama Basam or Bakus, Tasia, Mukhla, Gin, Gan or Kan or Nimrod, Nimmirud Ayus, Ama-Basu or Bikukshi-Nimi 3336–3273 BCE Azag Bakus or Gan at Unuk, Enoch or Erech City As Above 3 Second Sumerian Dynasty3272–3248 BCE Naksha, Enuzu, Anenzu, Unnusha, In, Enu Nahusha, Anenas or Janak 4 3247–3242 BCE Udu, Uduk Udā-vasu, Yadu, Yayati, (?)
