Arakachatani
Arakachatani is a person who appears in Nubia around the first century AD . He is mentioned in the temple of Amun in Naqa next to King Natakamani and Amanitore .
The name of Arakachatani is written like a king in a cartouche and like a king he has a second name, also written in a cartouche: Anchkare . Nevertheless, he should not have been a ruling king, since he lacks other royal attributes and he is always named together with Natakamani, who ruled as king with certainty. Arakachatani can only have been a prince or general who, like Akinidad, had the honor of being able to write his name in a cartouche.
Arakachatani may have been buried in the pyramid Beg N14 in Meroe .
