About Mutbenret, Great Royal Wife

   For Egyptian ladies called Mutnedjmet see Mutnedjmet (disambiguation)

G15 t M30 t Aa29 B1 Mutbenret in hieroglyphs

Mutbenret (Benretmut) was an Egyptian noblewoman, and said to be the Sister of the Great Royal Wife Nefertiti. Her name used to be read as Mutnedjemet. The hieroglyphs for nedjem and bener are similar and so is their meaning. The name is now thought to be Mutbenret however.[1]

One theory holds that Mutbenret was the same person as Mutnedjmet the wife of Horemheb, the last ruler of the Eighteenth Dynasty.[2] But there is no conclusive evidence for this theory, and some challenge this theory.[3] Mutbenret in an Amarna tomb

Mutbenret appears in several of the Tombs of the Nobles at Amarna:[4]

   In the tomb of Panehesy (tomb 6) the presence of two dwarfs on a lintel in a register associated with an offering scene indicate that Mutbenret was depicted nearby (probably in a register next to the royal princesses).[5] [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutbenret]
