Seth Meribre was a little known king during the 13th Dynasty.

Seth Meribre may have been the twenty-fourth pharaoh and reigned from Memphis, ending in 1749 BC^[1] or c. 1700 BC.^[2] The length of his reign is not known for certain; the Egyptologist Kim Ryholt proposes that he reigned for a short time, certainly less than ten years.^[1]
