What Wikipedia says

The Story of Sinuhe, also referred to as the Story of Sanehat or Sanhath, is a work of ancient Egyptian literature. It was likely composed in the beginning of the Twelfth Dynasty after the death of Amenemhat I and the accession of Senusret I as sole pharaoh (i.e. some time after 1971 BC).
