Efni

Efni (Iufni) was an ancient Egyptian king ( Pharaoh ) of the 13th Dynasty ( Second Intermediate Period ), who probably only ruled for a short time.

So far it has only been documented with certainty in the Turin Royal Papyrus. He may be identical to one of the rulers otherwise known only by throne names.
