Curiously, this sovereign, and we know almost nothing about him, apart from his tomb (in which, however, never found any scroll bearing his name), possess only a small statue made of ivory (about 7.5 cm high ) attributable to security, which is located at the Cairo museum.

In Papyrus Westcar Cheops it is described as a benevolent ruler unlike what brings the greek historian Herodotus, which - writing more than two thousand years later than the narrated historical facts - described him as a tyrant who had enslaved the people in order to build their own tomb (the pyramid).
