    2nd Dynasty (2,890-2,686)

    • Unified Egypt:
      - Hotepsekhemwy
      - Nebra (aka Raneb)
      - Nynetjer
      - Nubnefer1 (possibly only king of Upper Egypt)
      - Weneg2 (possibly only king of Lower Egypt)
      - Sened3
      - Sekhemib (possibly one in the same as Peribsen)
      - Peribsen (possibly one in the same as Sekhemib)
      - Khasekhemwy (aka Khasekhem)(wife: Nimaathap)


    • Unaccounted for4:
      - Sendji (reflected on Turin Canon & Abydos List)
      - Neterka (Aaka?) (reflected on Turin Canon)
      - Neferkara (reflected on Abydos List, possibly 3rd Dynasty)

     

    Notes:
    1. Nubnefer could have possibly been a contemporary of Nynetjer and may have briefly ruled Upper Egypt during the period of unrest following the death of Nynetjer.

    2. Weneg was undoubtedly a successor of Nynetjer, however, he is so far only attested to in Lower Egypt

    3. Sened is only attested to in Lower Egypt, could have been a contemporary of Peribsen

    4. These particular names have been reflected on either the Turin Canon or the Abydos List (or both), but no archaeological evidence has been located to support their existence. They could be additional, unknown, names of substantiated kings.
