Djehuti
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
- Djehuti was also one of the names of the Ancient Egyptian god, Thoth.
Djehuti, Djehuty or Thuty was an early Pharaoh of Egypt of the Theban 16th or 17th dynasty based in Upper Egypt during the Second Intermediate period. He reigned for 3 years after around 1650 BC according to Kim Ryholt. His wife Mentuhotep's burial was found intact and a (now lost) coffin is known for her. It contained one of the earliest monuments of the Second Intermediate Period which was inscribed with texts from the Book of the Dead. Djehuti's prenomen, Sekhemre Sementawy, means "The Power of Re who Establishes the Two Lands."[1]
He was likely succeeded by Sobekhotep VIII.
