Hor-Aha
Sign in to saveHor-Aha (or Aha or Horus Aha; ) is considered the second pharaoh of the First Dynasty of Egypt by most Egyptologists, while others consider him the first one and corresponding to Menes. He lived around the 31st century BC and is thought to have had a long reign.
Hor-Aha was an early Egyptian pharaoh who ruled around the 31st century BC, though scholars debate whether he was the first or second king of Egypt's First Dynasty. He is believed to have had a lengthy reign and may be the same historical figure that some sources call Menes, the legendary founder of unified Egypt.
