RARE ANTIQUE ANCIENT EGYPTIAN Statue Pharaoh Khefren Khafre 2520-2494 BC
About The Object:As with many of the very earliest Pharaoh\'s, even though they may have left some of the grandest of all monuments in Egypt, they left little in the way of inscriptions, and so we know very little about them. Khafre (Chephren), the builder of the second pyramid on the famous Giza Plateau near Cairo is a fine example.
His birth name was Khafre, which means \"Appearing like Re\". He is also sometimes refereed to as Khafra, Rakhaef, Khephren or Chephren by the Greeks, and Suphis II by Manetho.He was possibly a younger son of Khufu (Cheops) by his consort, Henutsen, so he was required to wait out the reign of Djedefre, his older brother, prior to ascending to the throne of Egypt as the fourth ruler of the fourth Dynasty. However, there is disagreement on this matter.Height: 5.5 inch / 14 cmBottom Diameter: 6.2 inch / 16 cmOrigin: Egypt
