| 47 years (supposedly)

| Seth-Peribsen

| Peribsen

| Used a Seth-animal above his serekh rather than a Horus falcon. He promoted the sun-cult in Egypt and reduced the powers of officials, nomarchs and palatines.

| colspan="2" | – ("Hudjefa")

| Known only from Ramesside king lists, his "name" is actually a paraphrase pointing out that the original name of the king was already lost in Ramesside times.

|11 years (according to the Turin Canon)

|Khasekhemwy

| Beb(e)ty

| Greek form: Chenerés.

It is probable that when Khasekhem acceded kingship he was a ruler of upper Egypt, he led campaigns against lower Egypt that ended in his victory, to commemorate his achievement of reunifying Egypt he changed his name to Khasekhemwy. His serekh name is unique for presenting both Horus and Set. He was one of Egypt's first master builders, his funerary enclosure known as Shunet-ez-Zebib is a colossal mudbrick structure.{{cite book |author= Toby A.H.

|Possibly be the same person as Huni or an archaistic representation of Thutmose III, correct chronological position unknown.

| Possibly built an unfinished step pyramid, could be identical with Huni.

|2643–2637 BC

| colspan="2" |HuniClayton (1994) p.42

| Greek form: Áches.

Could be the same as Qahedjet or Khaba. Possibly built an unfinished step pyramid and several cultic pyramids throughout Egypt. Huni was for a long time credited with the building of the pyramid of Meidum. This, however, is disproved by New Kingdom graffiti that praise king Sneferu, not Huni.

| 2637–2613 BC

|Nebmaat

|Sneferu

| Greek form: Sóris.

Reigned 24 years, giving him enough time to build the Meidum Pyramid, the Bent Pyramid and the Red Pyramid. Some scholars believe that he was buried in the Red Pyramid. For a long time it was thought that the Meidum Pyramid was not Sneferu's work, but that of king Huni. Ancient Egyptian documents describe Sneferu as a pious, generous and even accostable ruler.Thomas Schneider: Lexikon der Pharaonen. Albatros, Düsseldorf 2002, {{ISBN|3-491-96053-3}}, pp. 278–279.

| 2613–2589 BC

| Medjedu

|(Khnum-) Khufu

| Greek form: Cheops and Suphis.

Built the Great Pyramid of Giza. Khufu is depicted as a cruel tyrant by ancient Greek authors; Ancient Egyptian sources however describe him as a generous and pious ruler. He is the main protagonist in the Westcar Papyrus. The first imprinted papyri originate from Khufu's reign, which may have made ancient Greek authors believe that Khufu wrote books in attempt to praise the gods.

| 2589–2566 BC

|Kheper

|Djedefre

| Greek form: Rátoises.

Some scholars believe he created the Great Sphinx of Giza as a monument for his deceased father. He also created a pyramid at Abu Rawash. However, this pyramid is no longer extant; it is believed the Romans re-purposed the materials from which it was made.

|2566–2558 BC

| Userib

|Khafre

| Greek form: Chéphren and Suphis II.

His pyramid is the second largest in Giza. Some scholars prefer him as the creator of the Great Sphinx before Djedefra. His funerary complex was the largest at the Giza plateau.

|2558–2532 BC

Could be the owner of the Unfinished Northern Pyramid of Zawyet el'Aryan. Possibly fictional.

His pyramid is the third and smallest in Giza. A legend claims that his only daughter died due to an illness and Menkaura buried her in a golden coffin in the shape of a cow.

|2532–2503 BC

Owner of the Mastabat el-Fara'un.
