What else can I help you with?
Who wrote Instruction of Amenemope?
The instruction of Amenemope was written by the scribe Amenemope, son of Karnakht. Though there was a King Amenemopet, he was not a son of Karnakht, but rather had Psusennes I as a father. He is also dated much later than the document usually is.
Who is the fourth Pharaoh of Egypt?
Though historians are not completely sure, it is believed that Anedjib, Enezib who seems to have been from the area around Abydos and is recorded as a Thinite king on theSaqqara King List from the tomb of Thunery, was the 5th ruler of Egypt's 1st Dynasty. Anedjib was this king's Horus name, which means "Safe is His Heart". If he is to be identified with Manetho's Miebidos (Miebis, Merpubia), then he may have ruled Egypt for about 26 years. However, most Egyptologists seem to give him a somewhat shorter reign.
