:''See Amenemhat, for other individuals with this name.'' Seankhibre Ameny Antef Amenemhet VI was an Egyptian pharaoh of the early Thirteenth Dynasty ruling in the first half of the 18th century BC〔K.S.B. Ryholt: ''The Political Situation in Egypt during the Second Intermediate Period, c.1800–1550 BC'', Carsten Niebuhr Institute Publications, vol. 20. Copenhagen: Museum Tusculanum Press, 1997, (excerpts available online here. )〕 during a time referred to as the late Middle Kingdom or early Second Intermediate Period, depending on the scholar. Amenemhat VI certainly enjoyed a short reign, estimated to 3 years or shorter. He is attested by a few contemporary artefacts and is listed on two different king lists. He may belong of a larger family of pharaohs including Amenemhat V, Ameny Qemau, Hotepibre Qemau Siharnedjheritef and Iufni. ==Attestations== ;Historical Amenemhat VI is listed on the Turin canon, a king list redacted in the early Ramesside period and which serves as the primary historical sources regarding the Second Intermediate Period. In the latest reading of the canon by the Danish egyptologist Kim Ryholt, Amenemhat VI appears in the 7th column, 10th row under his prenomen ''Seankhibre''.〔〔Darrell D. Baker: The Encyclopedia of the Pharaohs: Volume I - Predynastic to the Twentieth Dynasty 3300–1069 BC, Stacey International, ISBN 978-1-905299-37-9, 2008, p. 33–34〕 This corresponds to the 6th column, 10th row in Alan Gardiner's and Jürgen von Beckerath reading of the Turin king list.〔Alan Gardiner: ''The Royal Canon of Turin'', Griffith Institute, new edition 1997, ISBN 978-0900416484〕〔Jürgen von Beckerath: ''Handbuch der ägyptischen Königsnamen, Münchner ägyptologische Studien'', Heft 49, Mainz : Philip von Zabern, 1999, ISBN 3-8053-2591-6, see pp.90–91, king No 7.〕 Amenemhat VI is also mentioned on the Karnak king list, entry 37.〔This corresponds to entry 34 in Ryholt and Baker's numbering of the king list.〕 ;Archeological Amenemhat VI is attested by a few contemporary artefacts. These include 2 cylinder seals from el-Mahamid el-Qibli in Upper Egypt,〔One of the two cylinder seals is housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, (see online catalog )〕 one of which is dedicated to "''Sobek Lord of Semenu''".〔〔William C. Hayes: ''The Scepter of Egypt: A Background for the Study of the Egyptian Antiquities in The Metropolitan Museum of Art.

Civilisation, survivances et «cabinetz de curiositez»'', 1985, 76–78, 80 fig. 41〕 and an architrave from a private tomb of the necropolis of Heliopolis〔Detlef Franke: ''Zur Chronologie des Mittleren Reiches (12.-18. Dynastie) Teil 1 : Die 12. Dynastie'', in Orientalia 57 (1988) see p. 267–268 no. 57〕〔 However, recent researchs indicates that the latter monument belongs to another king, Seankhibtawy Seankhibra. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Amenemhet VI」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
