Wadjkare () may have been an ancient Egyptian king of the Eighth dynasty who reigned during the First Intermediate Period. He is considered to be a very obscure figure in Egyptian history.
== Identity == Wadjkare is mentioned only once: in a royal limestone tablet known as Coptos Decree R (Cairo museum; obj. JE 41894), which is said to have been created by the king himself. It contains a list of punishments for everyone who dares to damage or plunder a shrine dedicated to the god Min-of-Coptos. However, from an archaeological standpoint there is nothing else known about this king. His existence is questioned by some scholars, because he is not mentioned in any Ramesside king list.
