Note

Nofret was a noblewoman and princess who lived in Ancient Egypt during the 4th dynasty of Egypt.

Nofret's Parents are not known. She married Prince Rahotep, who was a son of Pharaoh Sneferu. She had three daughters and three sons with Rahotep.

Nofret was buried with her husband in mastaba 16 at Meidum. In 1871, beautiful statues of Rahotep and Nofret were found. Nofret is depicted with a black wig and very fair face. Her titles in hieroglyphs on the back of her chair name her as"King's Acquaintance". The statues are now in the Cairo Museum.

Children of Nofret and Rahotep were Prince Djedi, Prince Itu, Prince Neferkau, Princess Mereret, Princess Nedjemib and Princess Sethtet.

The pair of statues, for Nofret and Rahotep, have the standard difference of skin color of that time: males are dark because they spend their time in activities in the sun; women always have a fairer skin color, their domain being in the house.
