A:
huni -lrb- original reading unknown -rrb- was an ancient egyptian king and the last pharaoh of the 3rd dynasty during the old kingdom period .following the turin king list , he is commonly credited with a reign of 24 years , ending c. 2600 bc .huni 's chronological position as the last king of the third dynasty is seen as fairly certain , but there is still some uncertainty on the succession order of rulers at the end of 3rd dynasty .it is also unclear under which hellenized name the ancient historian manetho could have listed him in his historical writing '' aegyptiacae '' .most possibly he is to be identified with the hellenized name aches , as winfried barta proposes .many egyptologists believe that huni was the father and direct predecessor of king sneferu , but this is questioned by other scholars .huni is seen by scholars as a confusing figure in egyptian history , because he was long remembered in egyptian traditions , but only very few documents , objects or monuments have endured .
