OSIRTESEN. Osirtesen
I., the second king of the XIIth dynasty, and the son of Amenemha
I. He conquered a great part of the land of Kush or Ethiopia proper,
and erected fortresses to repel the incursions of the Negroes into
Egypt. A great inundation of the Nile, followed by a famine, took
place in his reign, the terrors of which were alleviated by the wisdom of
his chief officer Ameni. After reigning thirty-eight years he
associated Amenemha II. with himself, and then reigned jointly four years
longer. The name Osirtesen is also written Sesertesen, and Usertesen
by the Continental Egyptologists. Osirtesen I. was the original

situ.
