Rehuankh was an Ancient Egyptian high official associated with kings Neferhotep I and Sobekhotep IV of the Thirteenth Dynasty during the Middle Kingdom. Rehuankh is known from a high number of sources, making him one of the best attested officials of the late Middle Kingdom.[1]
As "King's Acquaintance" he worked together with King's Acquaintance Senen and King's Acquaintance Nebankh under the leadership of treasurer Senebi.[2]
Later he might have become high steward.[3] [4] However, this attestation is weak.
At Wadi el-Hudi, Rehuankh is known from inscriptions. He appears on a stela as part of the staff of treasurer Senebi. As high steward he is known from a statue.[1]
