Hori II , son of Kama, was a viceroy of Kush in the 19th and 20th dynasties .

Hori is definitely only documented under Siptah , but it could go as far as Ramses III. have officiated. His birthplace was Bubastis , where his grave was discovered. We know of two inscriptions left by his son Webechsenu. One comes from Buhen and dates back to the sixth year of King Siptah. The other is in Sehel and shows the son standing behind his father. In both, Hori is shown worshiping the goddess Bastet . In Buhen, there was also a lintel in his house.

Successor in the office of viceroy of Kush was his son Hori III.
