Biography

Neserkauhor was a son of Djedkare Isesi.[2] We do not know who his mother was. Neserkauhor was buried in Abusir. His tomb seems to date to a slightly later date than that of his sister Kekheretnebti and the nobleman Idu. When Neserkauhor's mastaba was excavated in the 1980s a large number of wooden statues were found.[3][4]
