Sekhemre Sementawy Djehuti (also Djehuty and other variants) was possibly the second king〔〔 of the Theban 16th Dynasty reigning over parts of Upper Egypt during the Second Intermediate Period. Alternatively, he may be a king of the late 13th Dynasty〔 or the fourth king of the 17th Dynasty.〔Jürgen von Beckerath: ''Handbuch der ägyptischen Königsnamen'', Münchner ägyptologische Studien, Heft 49, Mainz : P. von Zabern, 1999, ISBN 3-8053-2591-6, see p. 126–127.〕 Djehuty is credited with a reign of 3 years in the first entry of the 11th column of the Turin canon. According to the Egyptologist Kim Ryholt and Darrel Baker, he was succeeded by Sobekhotep VIII.〔〔 __FORCETOC__ ==Chronological position== Djehuti's dynasty remains debated. Indeed on this point, the Turin Canon is open to interpretations. There are several kings recorded with the name "Sekhemre()" and the damage to the original document does not preserve the complete name. As a result Djehuti, named Sekhemre Sementawy, may in principle correspond to any "Sekhemre()" preserved on the king list, i.e. may be a ruler of the 13th, 16th and even 17th Dynasty. The Egyptologists Darell Baker and Kim Ryholt believe that he was part of the 16th Dynasty, which controlled the Theban region after 1650 BC.〔 Alternatively, two studies by Claude Vandersleyen and Christina Geisen date Djehuti's reign to the very end of the Memphite 13th Dynasty.〔〔Claude Vandersleyen: Rahotep, Sébekemsaf 1er et Djéhouty, Rois de la 13e Dynastie. In: Revue de l'égyptologie (RdE) 44, 1993, p. 189–191.〕 Geisen's datation relies on stylistic considerations of his queen's coffin, which however, Stephen Quirke argues, uses unproven assumptions.〔S. Quirke, ''Review von Geisen: Die Totentexte…''. In: Journal of Ancient Near Eastern Religions. Nr. 5, 2005, p. 228–238.〕 An older theory of Jürgen von Beckerath, whose conclusions are shared by Hans Stock, contends that Djehuti was a ruler of the early 17th Dynasty, which arose in Upper Egypt after the collapse of 16th Dynasty following the short-lived Hyksos conquest of Thebes. This theory is supported by the discovery of the tomb of Djehuti's queen, Mentuhotep, which is located in Dra' Abu el-Naga', a necropolis usually associated with the 17th Dynasty. Scholars such as Chris Bennett however, point out that this does not necessarily mean that Djehuti was buried in Dra' Abu el-Naga' as well.〔Christina Geisen, Zur zeitlichen Einordnung des Königs Djehuti an das Ende der 13. Dynastie, Studien zur Altägyptischen Kultur, Bd. 32, (2004), pp. 149-157〕 Some Egyptologists proposed that Djehuti was married to a granddaughter of the vizier Ibiaw who served under the 13th Dynasty king Wahibre Ibiau c. 1712 - 1701 BC, and was thus most likely two generations removed from this king.〔Labib Habachi: "The Family of Vizier Ibiˁ and His Place Among the Viziers of the Thirteenth Dynasty", in ''Studien zur altägyptischen Kultur'' 11 (1984), pp. 113-126.〕〔Ryholt, Note 555 page 152〕 In more recent times, however, it was pointed out that the link between Ibiaw and Djehuti's consort Mentuhotep is still unproven and that the proposed temporal correlation between Wahibre Ibiau and Djehuti remains conjectural.〔W.
