Iry-Hor (jan 1, 3175 BC – jan 1, 3165 BC)

Description:

Iry-Hor (or Ro; fl. c. 3170 BC) was a predynastic pharaoh of Upper Egypt during the 32nd century BC. Excavations at Abydos in the 1980s and 1990s and the discovery in 2012 of an inscription of Iry-Hor in Sinai confirmed his existence. Iry-Hor is the earliest ruler of Egypt known by name and is sometimes cited as the earliest-living historical person known by name.
