Taurus or Bull is the provisional name for a predynastic ruler, the existence of whom is highly controversial. He is considered a ruler of the late Chalcolithic Naqada III culture of southern Egypt.
If "Taurus" or "Bull" actually represents a ruler's name, it is mainly known from ivory tablets from the Abydos tomb U-j of Umm El Qa'ab and from a rock carving on the Gebel Tjauti mountain.
