Details about King Merenre I
Mern Ra I was the fourth king of the Sixth Egyptian Dynasty and ruled from 2283 BC to 2278 BC. He was appointed ruler of the Upper Egypt from Elephantine southwards (Aswan) to Atfih and was sent by the pharaoh to the quarries of Abhat in Nubia and the quarries of Elephantine, then to the alabaster quarries in Hatnub in Central Egypt, then the king sent him to make five canals in the south.
His father, King Bibi I, ruled the throne of ancient Egypt for twenty years and received the coronation ceremony of the pharaohs. He was interested in strengthening and developing the army in ancient Egypt, introducing new equipment and tools of war and developing fighting methods.
He was interested in strengthening Egypt's southern and eastern borders by sending military campaigns to fight enemies as in the geography of ancient Egypt and suppressing revolts in ancient Egypt, especially from the people of Nubia and the Sinai region of the Bedouins.
He violated the traditions of the pharaonic royal family in the sixth Egyptian dynasty by marrying Queen Ankhs In Bibi II, the daughter of the rulers of the Abydos region in southern Egypt, and gave birth to King Mern Ra I, as it was the tradition of the kings of the third Egyptian dynasty until the sixth dynasty to marry only the princesses of the royal palace and not to marry outside the palace.
He built his own pyramid in the archaeological area of Saqqara, the ‘Pyramid of Men-nefer’. He was interested in building funerary temples in the Saqqara area, where the temple of King Bibi I was discovered in Saqqara, which contains wonderful and very beautiful pharaonic scenes, inscriptions and drawings.
