Iiwy Hotep, friends! Please step on in; I'm honored to meet with you.
Merneith was the spouse of Djet (alternatively Wadj, Zet or Uadji), who is considered by many to be the third Pharaoh of the first Dynasty.
She may have ruled as regent for her son; the extent of her power as a ruling Queen is unknown.
Her son was Den, or Dewen, considered to be the 4th Pharaoh of the First Dynasty. He was the first king to be depicted wearing the Double Crown of Lower and Upper Egypt, and it is known he undertook some campaigns against tribes in the Sinai.
Merneith's name has also been rendered as Merytneith.
Please drop by and visit my fellow scribes here in Egypt, if you have the opportunity:
Meritites Hatshepsut
Seshat Taharqa
My interests in Egypt are varied. The Iwyts I create are likely to be light-hearted, whereas I hope to pen some serious articles when time arises.

Quotes to consider living by:
Don't try to solve serious matters in the middle of the night. -- Philip K. Dick.
In case you're worried about what's going to become of the younger generation, it's going to grow up and start worrying about the younger generation. -- Roger Allen.

Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep. -- Scott Adams.
Perhaps the most valuable result of all education is the ability to make yourself do the thing you have to do, when it ought to be done, whether you like it or not; it is the first lesson that ought to be learned; and however early a man's training begins, it is probably the last lesson that he learns thoroughly. -- Thomas H. Huxley.
