  Dynasty 3 - Sanakht, Djoser, Sekhemkhet, Khaba, Huni,
Dynasty 3 - Sanakht, Djoser, Sekhemkhet, Khaba, Huni,
Khaba is mentioned in the Turin King List as "erased", which may imply that there were dynastic problems during his reign, or that the scribe working on this list was unable to fully decipher the name from the more ancient records being copied from.
Khaba's name, typically displayed within a serekh rather than the more typical cartouche form established by the end of this dynasty, was written using the sign of a rising sun that had the sound value of kha, and a Saddle-billed Stork that had the sound value of ba.

  Khaba - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Khaba was a Pharaoh of Ancient Egypt's Old Kingdom.
It has also been suggested that Khaba may be the Horus name of the last king of the Third Dynasty, Huni, and that the two kings are the same person.
Khaba's name, typically displayed within a serekh rather than the more typical cartouche form established by the end of this dynasty, was written using the sign of a rising sun that had the sound value of kha, and a Saddle-billed Stork that had the sound value of ba.

 Khaba
To Khaba is ascribed the so-called layer-pyramid at Zawiyet el-Aryan, a new mortuary area north of Saqqara, where only one more pyramid would be begun, before new burial ground were introduced.
The pyramid was never used, it is quite possible that Khaba was buried at a mastaba north of his pyramid, where alabaster vessels with his name have been found.
Khaba was preceded by Sekhemkhet, and succeeded by Huni.

 The Ancient Egypt Site - The Horus Khaba
In the Turin King-list, this king, whose name has been marked as "erased", is credited with a reign of a mere 6 years.
It may also be that the composer of the Turin King-list was unable to read the name.
Khaba is believed to have built his funerary monument in Zawyet el-Aryan, about 7 km north of Saqqara.

 Egyptian Pharaohs : Old Kingdom : Dynasty 3 : Khaba
khaba is attested to by a carving in Sahure's tomb and on a few stone bowls, although his own tomb is not known.
Actually, even less is known about Khaba than his predecessor Sekhemkhet, who was entirely unknown to the world until 1950.
It is probably that the king died before the pyramid was finished, and it was abandoned.

 Zawiyet el-Aryan. Pyramid of Khaba
Khaba was a pharaoh of the 3rd Dynasty and ruled for 4 years, from 2640 until 2637 BCE.
If it was built for Khaba that makes it only 10-30 years younger than Zoser's pyramid.
Khaba's short reign may explain why it never was completed, as the succeeding king would be more inclined to pay for his own burial ground.

 Khaba - Kha'ba (Sedjes - Hudjefa)
The serie of stone bowls of Khaba represent a return to the past tradition which had ended with Khasekhemwy; in Djoser's Step Pyramid complex no inscription of Khaba was found on Stone vessels; after Khaba the trend to produce and inscribe stone vessels was abandoned again to be reprised only during the reign of Snofru.
Finally the presence of bowls inscribed by Khaba around the pyramid could be compared with similar practices later attested in Khaefra, Menkaura and Sahura funerary temples, and previously witnessed in the enormous amount of vessels preserved for Netjerykhet-Djoser: archaic kings' inscribed stone vessels gathered for later sovereigns' funerary monuments.
Nabil Swelim (op.cit.) considered Khaba a predecessor of Netjerykhet (half Second Dynasty II or beginning of IIIrd Dyn.); the author didn't ascribe to him the Layer Pyramid of Zawyiet el Aryan.

MR KHABA: It is because the things that were happening at the place where I lived were not pleasing at all, because the police would create a situation where a case that's been opened would not succeed, and I wanted to expose everything that was being covered by the police.
MR KHABA: We proceeded to Wesselton, that is myself and Livingstone, and when we were at Wesselton we reported to Mrs Inkose, a member of the Womens League, that is the ANC Womens League, as to what had happened about Dumisane being shot, and Mrs Inkose went to the hospital.
MR KHABA: He lectured us with regard to the then situation, but he was very negative, he was actually against the ANC, and as we were under the wing of Inkatha, we had to be fully fledged members of Inkatha, and he also lectured us on leaving the party for another.

 Khaba, a Shadowy King of Egypt's Late, 3rd Dynasty
Khaba is attested to at four, and perhaps five sites in Egypt, including a mastaba (Z-500) at Zawiyet el-Aryan, where eight alabaster bowls inscribed with the king's serekh in red ink were unearthed.
There is also a diorite bowl of unknown provenance inscribed with the serekh of Khaba that is now in London's Petrie Museum, and another diorite bowl now in a private collection which is said to have come from Dahshur is likewise inscribed.
Because of the close architectural similarity between Sekhemkhet's unfinished pyramid and the one at Zawiyet el-Aryan, Khaba may be most plausibly identified as Sekhemkhet's immediate successor, provided that the layer pyramid indeed belongs to Khaba.

 Trickster's Way Vol 2
In this piece, Khaba's principles of reportage are evident: blame is balanced in the mention of both AK47 and G3 bullets ‑ automatic weapons associated with the African National Congress, and Inkatha and the Inkatha-aligned KwaZulu Police respectively.
Khaba's experiments in the value of circulating stories that worked with unusual subjects an made unusual connections, extended to playwriting.
As a writer, Khaba’s interest was not in differences between conflicting parties, ideological or otherwise, but in the ties between them that subverted the rationalisation of their enmities.

 EgyptSites - Zawyet el-Aryan
The pyramid was investigated by the Italian archaeologist Alessandro Barsanti in 1900, but the owner of the structure was unknown until Reisner's American Expedition excavated the pyramid and some of the mastaba tombs in the area in the early part of the 20th century.
Here he found fragments bearing the name of Khaba as well as some pieces of pottery bearing the name of Narmer, which led him to suggest a Dynasty II date for the structure.
Khaba's pyramid was conceived as a step pyramid with a core built with sloping layers of masonry.

 Dynasty III
The next pharoah’s pyramid (perhaps Khaba’s) called the ‘layer pyramid’ was designed to be six or seven steps high though it is slightly smaller in area than Sekhemkhet’s.
King Khaba, of whom very little is known, also must have died after a short reign as his step pyramid at Zawiyet el-Aryan is also unfinished.
Evidence for King Khaba is minimal, vases were found at the ‘layer pyramid’ in Zawiyet el-Aryan between Giza and Abusir inscribed with his Horus name.

Other names of Khaba was Nebka, and Hornub Irtdjetef, according to Swelim.
His position in Manteho's list is tricky and a king named Aches is noted for a reign of 42 years, a figure too high to seem correct.
The Table of Swelim pro- motes Necherphes and gives Khaba the second name Nebka and makes him the founder of the dynasty with a 19 year reign.

 Kyllex - Khaba Magate
Outside the ever popular ‘Yizo Yizo’ was putting the two 1000 watt sub woofers through their paces whilst inside I was listening to "Khaba Magate", the title track to what I believe to be Kyllex’s debut solo album.
Kwaito on the other hand finds it’s roots in ‘the struggle’ where not many words were used to express the opinions of the people, instead slogans and phrases were chanted, hence kwaito is repetitive in nature and relies on catchy phrases and the beat primarily for it’s appeal.
Okay, so back to the album, ‘Khaba Magate’ means kick open the gate, and I give you 1 guess what the title track is about, yep, u guessed it, yet another song about the new millenium.

The serie of stone bowls of Khaba represent a return to the past tradition which had ended with Khasekhemwy; in the Djoser's Step Pyramid complex no inscription of Khaba was found on Stone vessels; after Khaba the trend to produce and inscribe stone vessels will be abandoned again to be reprised only by Snofru's reign.
The Layer Pyramid, 1,5 Km south of the other unfinished pyramid of Zawiyet el Aryan, was explored in 1910 by Reisner who attributed it to King Khaba on the basis of the inscribed bowls with red ink name found there; indeed the same archaeologist proposed, years later (Tomb Development 1936, p.
Swelim also advanced that the Layer Pyramid of Zawyiet el Aryan was built by Neferka and the stone bowls of Khaba found in Z-500, north of the layer pyramid, could have been something like those from dynasty I found in the Step Pyramid complex.
