Ahmose-Henutemipet (fl. c. 1574 BC)[1] was a princess of the late 17th Dynasty of Egypt.

Family

She is a daughter of King Tao and probably Queen Ahhotep I. She was the sister of Ahmose I. She bore the titles King's Daughter and King's Sister.[2]

Death

Tomb

In Thebes, she may have had a tomb that has not been identified.

Mummy

Her mummy was found in the tomb DB320 in 1881 and now is in the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. It was examined by Grafton Smith in June 1909. Ahmose-Henutemipet died as an old woman; she had grey hair and worn teeth. Her mummy was damaged, probably by tomb robbers. It is likely that the mummy was moved to DB320 after Year 11 of King Shoshenq I.[1]
