Siaspiqa (also Si'aspiqo) was a ruler of the Kushite kingdom of Meroë reigning for close to twenty years in the first half of the 5th century BC.

The pyramid and its chapel have yielded several inscribed stelas bearing his name as well as numerous artefacts suggesting a once rich burial.

[3] The name Segerehtawyre could reflect an official program of conquest and unification of Egypt by the kingdom of Kush or less aggressive negotiations with the northern neighbour in order to achieve political unity.

[16] The stela, the top of which was originally coated with golf leaf, depicts Osiris enthroned with Isis and Anubis while Siaspiqa's is shown adoring the god.

These works have yielded at least 11 fragmentary faience shawabtis[19] found in debris left by thieves, the upper half of one of which is currently housed in the Boston Museum of Fine Arts.

A separate excavation undertaken in 1922 unearthed a gold plaque part of a foundation deposit in the king's pyramid at Nuri, it is now in the British Museum.

[26] Pieces of amazonite and slate and travertine inlays from Siaspiqa's sarcophagus have also been uncovered[27][28] together with a small offering vessel and cup, both made of clay.

The burial chamber originally housed one or possibly two wooden anthropoid coffins for the king that were richly inlaid with obsidian, Lapis lazuli, slate and alabaster materials.
