The iconic greywacke relief sculpture of King Menkaure (Mycerinus) and queen shows the characteristics of Egyptian pharaonic sculpture. He is rigid, frontal, with one foot forward as a sign of life. The queen's gesture is one of familial belonging rather than protection.
<h3><u>
Who was King Menkaure?</u></h3>
- Menkaure, also known by the Hellenized names Mykerinos (Greek: M) and Menkheres (Greek: ), was an ancient Egyptian king (pharaoh) of the fourth dynasty during the Old Kingdom.
- His Egyptian transliteration is mn-k3w-R. (by Manetho). In contrast to Manetho's assertion that he succeeded Khafre to the throne, archaeological evidence indicates that he actually succeeded Khafre. Africanus (from Syncellus) lists Sôris, Suphis I, Suphis II, Mencherês, Ratoisês, Bicheris, Sebercherês, and Thamphthis as the four rulers of the fourth dynasty.
Menkaure gained fame for his Giza mausoleum, the Pyramid of Menkaure, and his statue triads, which depicted the king with his wives Rekhetre and Khamerernebty as well as with numerous gods.
