name of Amanibakhi

Amanibakhi was a Nubian king.

He is only known from his grave stele and his offering table. Both objects were rebuilt in a Christian church in Nuri . It can be concluded from this that he once had a pyramid in Nuri , but none of the pyramids there can be assigned to him with certainty. The style of its two monuments fits into the 4th century BC.
