His name means Serpent . He led an expedition to the Red Sea , perhaps with the aim of exploiting the mines in the Eastern Desert . His name has been found engraved on the rocks of one of the routes in the Eastern Desert which connected between Edfu and the Red Sea .

Two tombs belonging to Djet have been discovered at Abydos and Saqqara . His tomb at Abydos contained numerous stelae , including a magnificent limestone example inscribed with his Horus name . Moreover , a third tomb was discovered at Nazlet el-Batran , near the Giza archeological site , in which his name was found , engraved on its objects . Probably this tomb belongs to a member of his family or a high official . Throughout his reign , Egypt achieved a high degree of progress .
