Pepi II Neferkare was a king of the Sixth Dynasty in Egypt's Old Kingdom. His second name, Neferkare, means "Beautiful is the Ka of Re". He succeeded to the throne at age six, after the death of Nemtyemsaf I.
Pepi II's reign marked a sharp decline of the Old Kingdom. As the power of the nomarchs grew, the power of the king declined. From Wikipedia
