This expedition, counting more than 10 000 men was to retrieve stone suitable for his royal sarcophagus. - Probably Amenemhet 1 overthrew his master and proclaimed himself Pharaoh, founding the 12th Dynasty - It is also possible that Mentuhotep 4 simply died without a heir - His mummy and tomb were never been found |
