Teti

Teti opened the Sixth Dynasty as Egypt's king, though history preserved him under a tangle of aliases — Othoes, Tata, Atat, Athath — that later sources abandoned. He ruled for roughly 12 years, a figure reconstructed from fragments after the Turin King List lost the exact count to damage. He died around 2333 BC and was laid to rest at Saqqara, the necropolis that would hold his name long after the dynasty itself had run its course.
