Anedjib/Adjib
The fifth king of the 1st Dynasty at memphis (c. 2700 B.C.). He is reported to have ruled about 14 years, in an era of change and turmoil, when the Nome clans offered resistance to unity. He used the title King of Upper and Lower Egypt, but there is no evidence that he had control of the entire area.
His queen was Tarset or Betrest, a Memphite heiress who perhaps added legitimacy to his claim as a unifier of Egypt. She is listed as the mother of his successor, Semerkhet.
