Sendji

The Pharaoh Sendji (Sened) name appears in the Abydos kings list, the Saqqara Kings List, the Turin list and is referred to in a private tomb (belonging to the funerary priest Shery) in Saqqara. However there is no contemporary evidence that he ruled Egypt. Some scholars suggest that he was in fact Weneg, or Sekhemhib (Seth-Peribsen). Other scholars suggest that he ruled an area of Lower (northern) Egypt at the same time as Sekhemhib (Seth-Peribsen). Despite the lack of evidence of his reign, Manetho states that he held the throne for 41 years.
