The 13th Degree of the Scottish Rite is sometimes called "The Royal Arch of Solomon", it is a significant degree that is preceded by the 11th and
12th degrees as subcomponents and is the penultimate degree of "Practical Masonry" (Degrees 4th-14th)
King Solomon features heavily in the degrees of Practical Masonry as well as several of the higher degrees.
There may be some other Masonic Rite that has a degree named "Solomon's Rite", Freemasonry is quite irregular, even the Blue Degrees differ
slightly between many precincts.

If you want to know anything about masonry, MrNecros is exactly the WRONG person to take that from... read any of his previous posts as an example.
For real good information on masonry, fully searchable, try here. there are many different "Rites" of masonry. The Blue Lodge, the traditional first three degrees have a variety of different forms, the primary being York Rite, either emulation or Duncan's Ritual, all with variations in them, but basically the same. This is due to the fact that in the United States alone there are at least 2 regular grand lodges in each state (though a discussion of regular would take a while) each of which is responsible for the ritual in the state.
There are also several other grand lodges around the world, usually one in each country (state).
Beyond the first three degrees, which culminate in the Master Masons degree, there are York Rites and Scottish rites which confer the 4th through the 33rd degrees. There are also other bodies that confer different rites, not all recognized by regular masonry. There is no degree higher than Master Mason. All other degrees beyond the Master Mason are expansions on the material presented, and are universally (by masons) cnsidered SIDE degrees.
if not, ask a specific question and we will try to answer.
