"Khnum-Khufwy, son of Sneferu and Queen Hetepheres I. Bringer of light, saffron robed beloved of the golden orb and the silver sun."
―Inscription on Khufu's tomb[src]

Khufu (died 2566 BCE), also known as Knhum-Khufu or Cheops, was a pharaoh of the fourth Dynasty of Egypt. Born to the pharaoh Sneferu and Hetepheres I, he ordered the construction of the Great Pyramid of Giza atop a First Civilization vault, and was later buried inside.

During his reign, he also ordered an offering of a thousand loaves of bread, a hundred jars of beer, one ox and two balls of incense to the deceased pharaoh Djoser, as well as one cake, one jug of beer, a large portion of meat and one ball of incense to the chief lector priest for his learning.
