'''Amenemhet | '''Amenemhet IV''' was a [[pharaoh]] of [[Egypt]] who served as a junior co-regent under Amenemhet III. According to the Turin Canon papyrus, the full term of his reign is said to have been just over 9 years.<ref>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amenemhat_IV Amenemhat IV]</ref> His ancestry to his precedessor is enigmatic, and there are no records of [[Amenemhet III]] having any sons. Furthermore, he mysteriously disappeared before the death of Amenemhet III, resulting in [[Sobekneferu]] (one of Amenemhet III's daughters) ascending to the throne and becoming Egypt's first female ruler.<ref name=JOC>[http://creation.com/searching-for-moses Searching for Moses] by David Down.
