The following is an incomplete List of monarchs of Kerma, known collectively in Middle Kingdom Egyptian texts as Hkꜣr.[1] The Kingdom of Kerma existed as an independent state from around 2500 BC to 1520 BC. It was absorbed into the vigorous Egyptian Empire but would later reemerge as the Kingdom of Kush.
