Khamerernebty A (fl. c. 2450 BC) was a daughter of KingNyuserre Ini ofancient Egypt from the5th Dynasty. She was married toPtahshepses (a vizier). Her name meansAppearance of the beloved of the Two Ladies.
Khamerernebty was a daughter of KingNyuserre Ini. It is not known who her mother was. The principal wife of her father wasReptynub, but there is no evidence she was Khamerernebty's mother.
Khamerernebty married a vizier namedPtahshepses. Their children are mentioned in Ptashepses' tomb atAbusir: sons Ptahshepses, Kahotep, Qednes, and Hemakhti, and daughter Meritites, who had the title "King's Daughter", even though being only the granddaughter of a king.[1] Verner mentions an additional son named Kafini, whose image and name were systematically removed. Ptahshepses had two sons named Ptahshespses.[2]
Themastaba of Ptahshepses contained two sarcophagi: one for himself, and a slightly smaller one probably meant for Khamerernebty. The sarcophagus of Khamerernebty was part of the original design of the tomb, and must have been included before the conclusion of the mastaba. Khamerernebty's name has been found on limestone blocks, being inscribed by the builders. Khamerernebty was buried in the mastaba belonging to her husband. She also had a finished burial chamber in the Mastaba of the Princesses located near the north-east corner of Nyuserre's pyramid.[2] Khamerernebty shared the Mastaba of the Princesses with a princess named Meritites and a courtier named Kahotep. But this tomb was apparently never used.[3]
