Red granite block of Khufu (Cheops), Egyptian, 4th Dynasty, c2500 BC. Block bearing the so-called 'Horus name' of Khufu, builder of the Great Pyramids at Gizeh. Kings conventionally bore five different names, each of which defines a different part of their personality as king. The Horus name is probably the oldest of these names, as it is the standard form used in royal inscriptions of the First Dynasty (about 3100-2890 BC). It stresses the association of the living king with the god Horus, the son and successor of Osiris. This block was found in the first court of the temple of Bubastis. It had obviously been reused, leaving us no idea of the earlier structure. It is rare to find stone structures of Fourth Dynasty kings away from their pyramids, and these blocks are very important evidence for the use of stone in early temples. EA, 1097
