Neferure or Neferura (Ancient Egyptian: Nfrw-Rꜥ, meaning The Beauty of Re) was an Egyptian princess of the Eighteenth Dynasty of Egypt. She was the daughter of two pharaohs, Hatshepsut and Thutmose II. [1] She served in high offices in the government and the religious administration of Ancient Egypt.
Considered a weak ruler, he was married to his sister Hatshepsut. He named Thutmose III, his son as successor, but Thutmose III was too young to rule at his father's death and thus his stepmother Hatshepsut was his regent. Hatshepsut and Thutmose II had a daughter, Neferure.
He was her stepson and nephew. Shortly thereafter, Hatshepsut was named pharaoh. Her daughter, Neferure, took her place in many functions that required a royal queen serving as the Great Royal Wife and, as God's Wife of Amun in the temple, while Thutmose III remained as co-regent to Hatshepsut. He became the head of the armies.
Senimen was called teacher of the god's body of the god's wife Neferure, nurse of the daughter of the god's wife Hatshepsut and steward of the king's daughter. Senimen was evidently at one point in his career appointed to become the teacher of Neferure. He was also administrator of Neferure's domains. The timing of this appointment is unclear.
Senenmut first enters the historical record on a national level as the "Steward of the God's Wife" and "Steward of the King's Daughter" ().Some Egyptologists place Senenmut's entry into royal service during the reign of Thutmose I, but it is far more likely that it occurred during either the reign of Thutmose II or while Hatshepsut was still regent and not pharaoh.
At Abydos, a limestone stela was found mentioning a King's Daughter Hatshepsut. [1] [2] [3] In the stela it is stated that she was the daughter of a king's wife Nofret. The name of her royal father is not recorded here. The queen Nofret is not known from other sources. [4] On stylistic grounds, the stela can be dated to the 13th Dynasty. [5]
