Hedjetnebu (Hedjetnub; (c. 2408 BC -c. 2390 BC[1]) was aPrincess ofEgypt who lived during the5th Dynasty. Her father wasKingDjedkare.^[2]

Hedjetnebu was buried in a tomb inAbusir, south-east of the mortuary temple ofNiuserre. The skeletal remains of the princess show that she was a slender woman of 18–19 years when she died. Hedjetnebu was a full sister of princessKekheretnebti, who was buried in a tomb nearby. The examination of the skeletal remains shows that the sisters had some similarities and were both related toDjedkare Isesi. Evidence shows that Kekheretnebti's tomb was constructed first, soon followed by the construction of the tomb of Hedjetnebu. A scribe to the royal children named Idu had a tomb constructed a short time after the tomb construction for the princesses.^[1]
