Mutnofret«/b» ("«u»Mut «/u» is Beautiful") was a queen during the «u»Eighteenth dynasty of Egypt «/u». She was a secondary wife of «u»Thutmose I «/u» and the mother of «u»Thutmose II «/u».«u»[1]«/u»
Based on her titles of «i»King's Daughter and King's Sister«/i», she is likely to have been a daughter of «u»Ahmose I «/u» and a sister of «u»Amenhotep I «/u»,«u»[2]«/u» although the chief wife of Thutmose I was not Mutnofret, but «u»Queen Ahmose «/u».
It is likely that she was the mother of Thutmose I's other sons \endash «u»Amenmose «/u», «u»Wadjmose «/u» and Ramose \endash as well.«u»[3]«/u»
She was depicted in the «u»Deir el-Bahri «/u» temple built by her grandson «u»Thutmose III «/u»; on a «u»stela «/u» found at the «u»Ramesseum«/u»; on the colossus of her son; and a statue of her--bearing a dedication by Thutmose II--was found in Wadjmose's chapel.«u»[4]«/u» This suggests that Mutnofret was still alive during her son's reign.«u»[5]
