[Lucius Cornelius Sulla]

the mythical leader known as the Scorpion King

I thought that the theory is that the Scorpion King, or King Scorpion, is that last ruler of Upper Egypt in the pre-dynastic period, and the immediate predecessor of Narmer, the first Pharaoh of the first dynasty of the combined kingdom.

I don’t know about the Scorpion King. I would have thought that a drug lord. ;-)
