Kinglists

 
It is possible that the "Hudjefa" of the Turin King-list refers to Khaba. "Hudjefa" means that the chroniclers who composed the list had a lacuna in their sources and that the name of the king was lost.

Hudjefa.

Manetho

 
Neither Africanus not Eusebius have recorded a name that can be related to Khaba or to Hudjefa. Eusebius merely notes that the remaining kings after Djoser haven't achieved anything worth mentioning.
