History

Sobekhotep II is very likely the son of the earlier Sobekhotep II, and is the second of at least seven kings to take the name of the crododile god Sobek. He is listed in the Turin canon between Amenemhet VII and Khendjer. He probably ruled for a few years around 1778 BCE

He left behind a find red granit statue (currently in the British Museum), showing him sistting on the throne. His name in a cartouche clearly identifies the statue. Another piece of a statue was found in Karnak. His name has also been found on a block of stone used in a chapel at Abydos.
