KA (PHARAOH)

'Ka', also 'Sekhem Ka' ^[1], was a predynastic pharaoh of Upper Egypt. He ruled over Abydos and was buried at Umm el-Qa'ab. He most likely was the immediate successor to Iry-Hor and was succeeded by Narmer^[2]. He is the earliest known Egyptian king with a serekh, inscribed on a number of artefacts ^[3].
