Meruserre Yaqub-Har (other spelling: Yakubher, also known as Yak-Baal) was a petty king using Egyptian attributes during the Egyptian Second Intermediate Period and attested in contexts belonging to the Middle Bronze Age IIA/B. His reign cannot be precisely dated, and even the dynasty to which he belonged is uncertain.
