Hotepibre

A seated statue on a throne dedicated to Ptah and bearing the name of Hotepibre was found in Khatana, but its location of origin is unknown.

[5] At Per Nemty (el-Atawla), near Asyut (5 km) in the 12th Nome of Upper Egypt, a temple block with his name is now in the Cairo Museum (Temp 25.4.22.3).

[6][7] Hotepibre is sometimes also credited as the founder of a palace recently rediscovered at Tell El-Dab'a (the ancient Avaris).

[8] This pharaoh is also known by a ceremonial mace found inside the so-called "Tomb of the Lord of the Goats" in Ebla, in modern northern Syria;[9] the mace was a gift from Hotepibre to the Eblaite king Immeya who was his contemporary.

[1][2] Alternatively, Jürgen von Beckerath and Detlef Franke see him as the ninth king of the dynasty.
