(fl. 530–520 BC)
Egyptian officer from Sais. Commander of the navy under Ahmose II and Psamtik III. He became chief physician to Cambyses of Persia following his conquest of Egypt in 525 BC, and he claimed to choose the royal titulary of Cambyses. He left a long autobiographical inscription on a statue now housed in the Vatican Museum in Rome. He used his influence to benefit Sais and its temple. His tomb has recently been discovered at Abusir.
