Renseneb

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Renseneb or Ranisonb was an Egyptian king (throne name: so far unknown) of the 13th Dynasty.

He appears in the Turin King List (Columne 7, line 16) with a reign of four months. He is only known from one contemporary object, a bead which shows that he had a double name: Renseneb Amenemhat. Kim Ryholt reads the double name as a filiation, 'Renseneb son of Amenemhat'. However, other researchers do not follow him in this interpretation.[1]
