Huni

He was the last king in the dynasty , a fact confirmed by a literary text . This text is an instruction for the teaching of Kagemni , a contemporary of King Teti . Kagemni was a vizier and was eventually buried near Teti's pyramid at Saqqara . He had become a legendary figure since the end of the Old Kingdom , and his career was thought to have begun in Sneferu's reign . The text concludes as follows:

'Then the majesty of King Huni died , the majesty of King Sneferu was raised up as the beneficent king in this whole land . Then , Kagmni was made mayor of the city and vizier' .

He ruled for 24 years . He was the first to build a true pyramid that was the Meidum Pyramid , which was completed by his son-in-law Sneferu . This is probably why this pyramid is sometimes ascribed to Sneferu . King Huni had no son , only a daughter called Hetep-heres . She got married to one of the genius military leaders called Sneferu , who became the founder of the Fourth Dynasty , and later , King Sneferu .
