Meruserre Yaqub-Har (other spelling: Yakubher, also known as Yak-Baal[1]) was a pharaoh of Egypt during the 17th or 16th century BCE. As he reigned during Egypt's fragmented Second Intermediate Period, it is difficult to date his reign precisely, and even the dynasty to which he belonged is uncertain.
