Who was Huni?

Huni was an ancient Egyptian king of 3rd dynasty during the Old Kingdom reigning for 24 years. His chronological position as the last king of the third dynasty is fairly certain but it is unclear under which Hellenized name the ancient historian Manetho could have listed him. Most possibly he is to be identified with the Hellenized name Aches. Many Egyptologists believe that Huni was the father and direct predecessor of king Sneferu, but this is still disputed today.
