	Sanakhte
		Other sources suggest that Sanakhte should be placed later in the dynasty, possibly even after Khaba or Huni.
		Certainly, the Westcar Papyrus (written during the Middle Kingdom) places Nebka after Djoser, and it is argued that seal impressions bearing Djoser´s name which were discovered in the tomb of Khasekhemwy (the last king of the Second Dynasty) imply that he had arranged the burial because he was Khasekhemwy´s son and successor.
		However, it is also suggested that Sanakhte usurped the throne at the beginning of the dynasty.

	Dynasty 3 - Sanakht, Djoser, Sekhemkhet, Khaba, Huni,
		However, this is problematic to say the least, for we base our belief that he was Nebka on a source that lists his Horus name, Sanakhte, together with a second name that ends with the element "ka" Most of the information we have on this king refers to him as Nebka.
		However, despite this, mud seal impressions bearing the name of Nethery-khet Djoser from the Abydos tomb of the last king of the 2nd Dynasty Khasekhemuy and connected with the burial seem to suggest that Khasekhemuy's widow and her already ruling son Djoser were in charge of the king's burial.
		Many theories regarding the rule of Sanakhte have been advanced, including the possibility that Sanakhte, as a member of a former ruling family, usurped the throne from the ruling family at the beginning of the dynasty.

	Egyptian Pharaohs : Old Kingdom : Dynasty 3 : Nebkha
		It may be that Nebka founded the dynasty and Sanakhte ruled later, perhaps after Khaba.
		His position in the chronology is problematic, as the horus-name Sanakhte cannot be assigned to any of the kings in the king list.
		The name Sanakht has been found in the remain of a small pyramid built on Elephantine (which was the southern border of Egypt at the time --the country was much smaller than we are used to).

	Egyptian Pharaohs : Old Kingdom : Dynasty 3 : Djoser
		And, despite the fact that we know of three women associated with Djoser, we don't really know the relationship between Djoser and his successor, Sekhemkhet.
		This king is often placed as the first king of the Third Dynasty, although there is an earlier king, Sanakhte, who often takes that place.
		Some of the sources (notably the Westcar Papyrus) place the king Sanakhte (Nebka) after Djoser and before Huni instead of before Djoser.

	Sanakhte - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Sanakhte, also known as Nebka (in Greek known as Mesochris), was the first pharaoh of the Third Dynasty of Ancient Egypt (ruled 2686-2668 BC).
		While Sanakhte's existence is attested by a mastaba tomb and a graffito among other objects, his position as the founder of the Third Dynasty of Ancient Egypt as recorded by Manetho and the Turin Canon has been seriously undermined by recent archaeological discoveries at Abydos.
		Manetho credits a king by this name as being a particularly tall man, which is borne out by the remains that were found.

	Zoser
		Zoser succeeded his brother Sanakht to the throne.
		But we can once again assume with great certainty, that he managed to keep stability, hence he was a fit ruler.
		He was preceded by Sanakhte, possibly his brother, and suceeded by Sekhemkhet.

		Fortresses and walls were built along all frontiers (A 12 KM wall astride the Nile, at height of island of Philae).
		Sanakhte tries to emulate his predecessors, beginning among other things, a mausoleum like
		Zoser’s, but his tomb is simply installed where the mortuary temple of Unas was later to rise.

		The Turin King List scribe wrote Djoser's name in red ink which indicates the Ancient Egyptians recognition of this king's historical importance in their culture.

		It may be that Khasekhemwy was without a son; his daughter Nemaathap, the mother of Sanakhte's successor Djoser Netjerykhet, may also have been the mother of Sanakhte, since it is likely that he and Djoser were brothers.
		Sanakhte was responsible for innovations in connection with the kingship.
		The burial place of Sanakhte is unknown but it was probably at Saqqara.

		The earliest evidence that the two names belong to the same king is found on a long inscription on a large rock on the island of Sehel at Aswan.
		According to the Turin King list, Netjerikhet Djoser ruled for about 19 years, following the 20 year long reign of the otherwise unattested Nebka (Sanakhte).
		However, some archaeological sources have shown that Djoser may be considered as the first king after Khasekhemwii, the last king of the 2nd Dynasty.
