The prehistory of Egypt, also known as the Predynastic Period, spans the period from the earliest human settlement to the beginning of the Early Dynastic Period around 3100 BC, starting with the first Scorpion Pharaoh, Narmer for some Egyptologists, Hor-Aha for others, with the name Menes also possibly used for one of these kings. This Predynastic era is traditionally equivalent to the final part of the Neolithic period, beginning c. 6000 BC and ending in the Naqada III period c. 3000 BC.
