Djedkheperew

Djedkheperew (also known as Djedkheperu) was an Egyptian pharaoh of the 13th Dynasty reigning for an estimated two-year period, from c. 1772 BC until 1770 BC.[1][2] According to Egyptologists Kim Ryholt and Darrell Baker, Djedkheperew was the 17th king of this dynasty.[1][2] Djedkheperew is this pharaoh's Horus name; the prenomen and nomen of Djedkheperew, which would normally be employed by modern conventions to name a pharaoh, are unknown.
