Smenkhkare
Ankhkheperure Smenkhkare Djeser Kheperu (sometimes spelled Smenkhare, Smenkare or Smenkhkara) was a short lived Pharaoh in the late 18th Dynasty. His names translate as 'Living are the Forms of Re' and 'Vigorous is the Soul of Re - Holy of Forms'. His reign was during the Amarna Period, a time when Akhenaten sought to impose new religious views. He is to be distinguished from the king who was female and used the name Ankhkheperure Neferneferuaten but included epithets in her cartouche. Ankhkheperure Smenkhkare did not use epithets in his royal name or cartouche.Very little is known of Smenkhkare for certain because later kings, beginning with Horemheb, sought to erase the entire Amarna Period from history.
