Peribsen

The seventh pharaoh of the Second Dynasty

Also known as: Seth-Peribsen · Perabsen

Instead of the traditional falcon perched on the serekh of the Horus name, Peribsen chose instead the Seth-animal, likely due to religious shifts. His name is missing from the New Kingdom king lists, but the reason for this is unknown.
