Very little is known about Menes. We know nothing of his childhood.

Khufu was the son of King Sneferu and Queen Hetepheres but unlike his father Khufu was remembered as a cruel and ruthless pharaoh in later folklore.
It is known that King Leonidas of Sparta died at the Battle of Thermopylae in August, 480 BC. However very little is known about his formative years.
His dad was very nice! His dad was concidered a successful and loved leader. Unlike Khufu himself.
