Amenemhat I
The other royal teaching is the "Instructions of Amenemhat". This "sebayt" was reputedly authored by Amenemhat I, the founder of the Twelfth Dynasty, who ruled from 1991–1962 BCE, but was probably composed after his death. It should be mentioned that Amenemhat I was the first pharaoh to rule after the First Intermediate Period, and thus the instructions of Amenemhat are connected to his attempt to consolidate power typified by the "Prophecy of Neferti", as alluded to in the "Eulogy." Thus both regnal "sebayt" are directly connected to the Intermediate Period and its aftermath.
