I'm puzzled. Menes, also known as Aha, was the founder of the First Dynasty and united the Kingdoms circa 3100 B.C. But I can't find anything on line about a stela connected with him or his reign.
The Narmer palette dates to around 3200 B.C. and according to the Egyptian tourist board website is one of the oldest examples of hieroglyphs.
