Webenre

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Webenre (transliteration: wbn-rꜤ, meaning: "Rising of Re") was an ancient Egyptian pharaoh of the Fourteenth Dynasty during the Second Intermediate Period. He was of Canaanite origin and ruled from Avaris over the eastern Nile Delta in Lower Egypt. Webenre is merely known by his preserved throne name in the Turin King List (Col 8. Line 8 as per Gardiner).[1] This makes him either the ninth[2] or thirteenth[3][4] ruler of the dynasty. His reign length was less than a year, however the specific days and months are lost.[5]
