Princess Iput of Egypt .

Iput was a daughter of King Unas, the last king of Fifth dynasty of Egypt. She married Teti, the first Pharaoh of the Sixth dynasty of Egypt and thus helped strengthen his claim to the throne. Their son was Pepi I Meryre and she acted for him as a regent after her husband's death.

Iput I held several titles[2] due to the fact that she was the daughter of a king: Daughter of the King of Upper and Lower Egypt (s3t-niswt-biti), King’s Daughter of his body (s3t-niswt-nt-kht.f), God’s Daughter (s3t-ntr), This God’s Daughter (s3t-ntr-wt).

Other titles are due to the fact that she was married to a pharaoh: King’s Wife, his beloved (hmt-nisw meryt.f), Companion of Horus (smrt-hrw), Great one of the hetes-sceptre (wrt-hetes), She who sees Horus and Seth (m33t-hrw-stsh), and Great of Praises (wrt-hzwt).

Iput gained even more titles when her son Pepi I took the throne: King’s Mother (mwt-niswt), Mother of the Dual King (mwt-niswt-biti) and King’s Mother of the pyramid Mennefer-Pepy (mwt-niswt-mn-nfr-ppy).

Iput was buried in Saqqara, in a pyramid near that of Teti. The burial chamber contained a limestone sarcophagus, a cedar coffin. Remains of a middle aged woman were found. Some of her funerary equipment has survived. These include canopic vessels, a headrest, a gold bracelet and other items.[3]. Her remains are in the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. A stela shows her with her son.
