Ni-Neith (aka Hor-ni-Neith ) may have been an ancient Egyptian king ( pharaoh ) of the 0th Dynasty during the predynastic epoch. Nothing is currently known about his family or his chronological position.
Ni-Neith is only known from two clay carvings on fired vases from grave 257 in Helwan . The reading of the name is problematic due to the negligent execution, the Egyptologists Edwin van den Brink and Christiane Köhler are convinced of a reading as "Ni-Neith". A more precise time allocation is still pending.
