Senneferi

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Ancient Egyptian noble Senneferi was "Overseer of the Seal" and "Overseer of the Gold-Land of Amun", during the reigns of Thutmose II, Hatshepsut and Thutmose III during the 18th dynasty. He was buried in a tomb, located in the Sheikh Abd el-Qurna district of the Theban Necropolis, opposite Luxor, in Egypt.[1]

Senneferi seems to have been related to Amenhotep, the owner of the now lost tomb Tomb C.3, as he is mentioned in the incriptions in that tomb, and a statue of Amenhotep was found in TT99.[2]
