To him belongs the U-j tomb found in the royal cemetery of Abydos, where Thinite kings were buried.

Two of those plaques seem to name the towns Baset and Buto, showing that Scorpion's armies had penetrated the Nile Delta.

[1] In 1995, a 5,000-year-old graffito was discovered in the Theban Desert Road Survey that also bears the symbols of Scorpion and depicts his victory over another protodynastic ruler (possibly Naqada's king).

In a search of the tomb, archaeologists discovered dozens of imported ceramic jars containing a yellow residue consistent with wine, dated to around 3150 BC.

Chemical residues of herbs, tree resins, and other natural substances were found in the jars.
