Quick Facts Pharaoh, Reign ...

There is no contemporary archaeological find attesting the existence of this ruler since he is definitely known only by the Turin King List, where his incomplete name Senen[...] appears in position 4.22. He should have reigned from Herakleopolis after Nebkaure Khety or Wahkare Khety,[3] being one of the ephemeral rulers of the late 9th Dynasty. He was succeeded by an unknown king of the same dynasty.[2][4]
