Sahure
Sahure
was the second king of the Fifth Dynasty during the Old Kingdom in
ancient Egypt. He ascended the throne after Pharaoh Userkaf, most
probably for being his son. Sahure's reign lasted only 12 years during
the early phase of the 25th century B.C., but this short period
significantly impacted Egypt's political, cultural and financial
developments. Sahure was succeeded by his son Neferirkare Kakai, as per
the records of the Turin Canon or King List of ancient Egypt. The name
of Sahure literally means ‘He who is close by Ra’, indicating his faith
in the Egyptian Sun-God Ra. Sahure's burial tomb is in the Pyramid of
Sahure, which he built himself, which is in Abusir. He was also known to
have constructed a Sun Temple called “The Field of Ra," but this
building has not yet been located.
