Khamerernebty II was an ancient Egyptian queen of the 4th dynasty. She was a daughter of Pharaoh Khafra and Queen Khamerernebty I. She married her brother Menkaure and she was a mother of Prince Khuenre. Khamerernebty II is said to be the daughter of Khamerernebty I in her tomb. Khamerernebty I is thought to be the mother of Menkaure based on a partial inscription on a flint knife in the mortuary Temple of Menkaure and hence a wife of KingKhafre. This would imply that that Khamerernebty II was the daughter of King Khafra and Queen Khamerernebty I. Khamerernebty II was the mother of the King's Son Khuenre, who is thought to be the son of King Menkaure. This suggests that Khamerernebty II must have married her brother Menkaure. Khamerernebty II is mentioned in texts and on a statue found in the Galarza tomb in Giza. This tomb is located in the Central Field which is part of the Giza Necropolis. The tomb may have originally been built for Khamerernebty I, but wasfinished for her daughter Khamerernebty II. The lintel above the entrance to the chapel included an inscription mentioning both Khamerernebty I and her daughter Khamerernebty II. It is possible that she was buried in either Pyramid G3a or G3b (auxiliary pyramids to the Pyramid of Menkaura) instead. A later addition was made to the tomb for the burial of the King's Son Sekhemre. It has been suggested that he was either a son or grandson of Khamerernebty II. It is also possible However that his burial dates to a later period and is intrusive. |
