Sendji

Sendji´s name appears in the Abydos kings list, the Turin list and is referred to in a private tomb (belonging to Shery) in Saqqara. However there is no contemporary evidence that he ruled Egypt. Some scholars suggest that he was in fact Weneg, or Sekhemhib (Seth-Peribsen). Other scholars suggest that he ruled an area of Lower (northern) Egypt at the same time as Sekhemhib (Seth-Peribsen). Despite the lack of evidence of his reign, Manetho states that he held the throne for 41 years.
