Nome of Harawî

Harawî (also Herui) was a designated nome in the area around Coptos in Upper Egypt.

Harawî was once politically important, but during the 11th Dynasty, it was overshadowed by Thebes in the nome of Waset.

Another important town in the nome was Ombos, the main cult place of the deity Seth.

A third important place was Iushenshen, which became capital of the nome at the very end of the Old Kingdom, at least for a certain period.

The nome is first mentioned in the tomb of the king's son Netjeraperef at Dahshur, who dates under Snofru.
