Userkare Khendjer was the twenty-first pharaoh of the 13th dynasty during the Second Intermediate Period.〔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. 181〕 Khendjer reigned from Memphis during 4 years 3 months and 5 days, from 1764 BC until 1759 BC〔 or from 1718 BC until 1712 BC.〔Thomas Schneider following Detlef Franke: ''Lexikon der Pharaonen''〕 Khendjer had a small pyramid built for himself in Saqqara. __FORCETOC__ == Name == The name Khendjer is poorly attested in Egyptian.〔The name Khedjer for private individuals appears on only two monuments: Stela Marischal Museum, University of Aberdeen ABDUA 21642 and on stela Liverpool M13635, see Iain Ralston: ''The Stela of Ibi son of Iiqi in the Marischal Museum, University of Aberdeen'', In ''Discovering Egypt from the Neva, The Egyptologcial Legacy of Oleg D Berlev'', edited by S. Quirke, Berlin 2003, pp.107-110, pl. 6 and W. Grajetzki: ''Two Treasurers of the Late Middle Kingdom'', Oxford 2001, p. 28, pl. 2. Both monuments date to around the time of king Khendjer and the individuals there might have called themselves after the king.〕 Khendjer "has been interpreted as a foreign name ''hnzr'' and equated with the Semitic personal name ''h(n)zr'', () 'boar'" according to the Danish Egyptologist Kim Ryholt.〔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〕 He notes that this identification is confirmed by the fact that the name ''h(n)zr'' is written as ''hzr'' in a variant spelling of this king's name on a seal from this king's reign.〔Ryholt, p.220 and footnote 763〕 Ryholt states that the word 'boar' is: : "attested as ''huzīru'' in Akkadian, ''hinzīr'' in Arabic, ''hazīrā'' in Aramaic, ''hazīr'' in Hebrew (the name is attested as ''hēzīr'' in I Chron. 24:15, Neh. 10:20) ''hu-zi-ri'' in the Nuzi texts, ''hnzr'' in Ugarit, and perhaps ''hi-zi-ri'' in Amorite." 〔 Khendjer was, therefore, the earliest known Semitic king of a native Egyptian dynasty. Khendjer's prenomen or throne name, ''Userkare'', translates as "The Soul of Re is Powerful."〔Peter Clayton, Chronicle of the Pharaohs, Thames and Hudson Ltd, 2006 paperback, p.91〕 Khendjer, however, may have had a second prenomen at his coronation: 'Nimaatre' which translates as 'The one who belongs to Maat is Re.'〔(Khendjer Titulary )〕 This name appears together with the name Khendjer at the top of the stela of Amenyseneb (Louvre C12).〔Jürgen von Beckerath: ''Untersuchungen zur politischen Geschichte der zweiten Zwischenzeit in Ägypten'', Glückstadt 1964, 238〕 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「Khendjer」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
