Senedjemib Inti was a vizier from the Fifth dynasty of Egypt during the reign of king Djedkare Isesi.
Family
Senedjemib Inti was married to a lady named Tjefi. Senedjemib Inti and Tjefi had several children:[1]
- Senedjemib Mehi was the eldest son of Inti and Tjefi. Mehi served as vizier, likely under Unas.
- Fetekti (?) - The middle of three sons depicted with their parents in a marsh scene was likely called Fetekti. This person may be identical to Kakherptah Feteki (G 5560) who was a judge and administrator, overseer of the Memphite and Letopolite nomes, inspector of wab-priests of the pyramid of Khufu, overseer of new settlements of the pyramid of Isesi, overseer of scribes, great one of the tens of Upper Egypt, pre-eminent of place, director of scribes connected with the moon, and priest of Maat.
- Khnumenti, likely second son of Inti and Tjefi. Served under Unas and later in his career Khnumenti served as vizier.
- Niankhmin is depicted in Inti's tomb and served as a lector priest in his father's funerary establishment.
Burial
Senedjemib Inti was buried in mastaba G 2370 in Giza.
Senedjemib Inti had letters from Djedkare Isesi inscribed in his tomb. One royal decree is addressed to the chief justice overseer of all works of the king and overseer of scribes of royal documents, Senedjemib. This decree mentions the planning of a court in the pool area(?) of the jubilee palace called "Lotus-of-Isesi". This decree is dated to either the 6th or 16th count, 4th month of the 3rd season, day 28. However, this decree has now been dated to the Year of the [1]6th count, 4th month of the third season, day 28 by Eckhard Eichler.[2] A second letter concerns a draft of the inscriptions of a structure called the "Sacred Marriage Chapel of Isesi". The third decree recorded in Inti's tomb mentions the construction of a lake.[3]
Senedjemib Inti died during the reign of Djedkare Isesi. Inscriptions in the tomb of Inti describe how his son, Senedjemib Mehi, asks and receives permission to bring a sarcophagus from Tura. Senedjemib Mehi would later follow in his father's footsteps and become vizier.[4]
