Neferkare Tereru

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Neferkare Tereru (also Neferkare V) may have been an Eighth Dynasty king of ancient Egypt during the First Intermediate Period. His name is only attested on the Abydos King List (no. 49). Neferkare Tereru is absent from the Turin canon as a large lacuna in this document affects most kings of the 7th/8th Dynasty.[1] No contemporary document or building with his name has been found.[2][3]
