## Bio

Djedefre inherited the throne of the 4th Dynasty around 2558 BC, succeeding his father Khufu, the man who built the Great Pyramid at Giza. His mother's identity remains uncertain. Where his father had raised stone to the sky, Djedefre reshaped the office itself: he introduced the royal title Sa-Rê — "Son of Ra" — binding the pharaoh's name directly to the sun god for the first time. Every king who followed would carry that claim. The Greeks later knew him as Rhatoisēs. He died around 2558 BC, leaving behind not a monument of limestone but a theological architecture that outlasted any pyramid.
