Horus Ba is a little-known Egyptian pharaoh who is said to have reigned during the 2nd Dynasty.
Archaeological discoveries
The main archaeological find associated with Horus Ba is a clay seal found at Abydos, a major archaeological site in ancient Egypt. This seal bears his name, as well as that of several other rulers of the 2nd Dynasty. However, no tomb or monument attributable to Horus Ba has been identified to date.
Research by Egyptologists
Egyptologists have studied the few available sources regarding Horus Ba. Opinions differ as to its importance and place in Egyptian history. Some researchers believe that Horus Ba would have been a minor king or a short-lived ruler whose reign would not have left a significant trace.
Due to the lack of data on Horus Ba, it is difficult to establish with certainty his role and influence within the 2nd Dynasty. Research by Egyptologists continues, and future archaeological discoveries could possibly bring new information about this mysterious ruler.
