Shorkaror was a king of Kush who ruled from Meroë in the second half of the 1st century AD.[1] Shorkaror is attested as king in two inscriptions in Amara and in a large rock carving at Gebel Qeili.[2] His identification as a king has sometimes been doubted, though the rock carving depicts him with royal regalia and attire.[1] The carving is near to the trade route to Kassala and is the easternmost inscription of the Meroitic kings found so far.[3]
Shorkaror is attested as a crown prince in the co-reign of Amanitore and Natakamani, meaning that he was likely their successor.[2] He was preceded as crown prince by Arikhankharer and Arikakahtani, possibly his brothers.[2] In older scholarship, Amanitore was believed to have been Natakamani's wife, with Shorkaror as their son.[2] Amanitore is now known to have been Natakamani's mother, which leaves Shorkaror's specific relation to his predecessors unclear.[1]
George Andrew Reisner believed that Shorkaror was buried in pyramid Beg. N 10 in Meroë.[4] This is now considered unlikely given that Beg. N 10 is dated to the 2nd century BCE.[5] Shorkaror's burial site is instead conventionally regarded as unidentified.[1]
