- History -

Little is known about the reign of Antef III. The Turin King-list credits him with a reign of at least 8 years. He was the father of Mentuhotep II, who would re-unite Egypt under one rule. It does not appear that this king gained or lost territory to the kings of the 9/10th Dynasty.

He was buried in a narrow rock-tomb next to Antef II.
