Definitions for "Narmer"
First king of Dynasty 0. Traditionally identified with king Menes, the unifier of the "Two Lands". The Narmer palette in the Cairo Museum remains to be the most important record of him. Not much is otherwise known of his reign.
First pharaoh of Egyptian Old Kingdom; ruled c. 3100 b.c.e. (p. 39)
Narmer was an Egyptian Pharaoh who ruled in the 31st century BC. Thought to be the successor to the predynastic Scorpion, he is considered by some to be the founder of the First dynasty, and therefore the first king of all Egypt. There is a growing consensus that Scorpion and Narmer are identical, but no identification with any early king can yet be definitively proven.
