The fifth ruler of the First Dynasty, Anedjib — meaning Safe is His Heart — (also known as Enezib or Andjyeb ) is little known and obscure, even though he is thought to have ruled for 26 years.
He has a tomb at Umm el-Qa'ab, Abydos, alongside the other royal tombs. It is rather small and of a poorer quality than many of the surrounding burials.
