Khayu

Last updated

Khayu, [3] or Khaiu, [4] was a predynastic pharaoh of Lower Egypt who is mentioned as the fourth ruler on the Palermo Stone. As there is no other evidence of such a ruler, he may be a mythical king preserved through oral tradition, [5] or may even be completely fictitious. [6] [7]
