a king who was revered as the ruler who reunited Egypt after the First Intermediate Period. He builds a temple for himself on the Westbank of the Nile at Deir el-Bahri (which is now mostly known for the temple of Queen Hatshepsut). We see the king with the white crown of Upper Egypt. His name can be read in the cartouche in front of his face: mn-tw-htp Montuhotep.
