Amanichedolo

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Amanichedolo was a Nubian king who probably ruled in the second or third century AD.

Amanichedolo is only known from a fragment of a sacrificial tablet that was found in the West Cemetery in Meroe . It was at the Beg W19 grave. It remains doubtful whether this was his grave. Instead, the pyramid Beg N34 was assigned to him, but this is very speculative.
