Queen consort of Egypt
Nebty-tepites (nb.tỉ tp ỉt=s, "The two crowns on the head of her father";[1] fl. c. 2550 BC) was a Princess of ancient Egypt. She is mentioned in the tomb of her mother, Meresankh II.[2]
Nebty-tepites was a daughter of Prince Horbaef and his half-sister Meresankh II. She had a sister Nefertkau III and a brother Djaty. After Horbaef's death, Meresankh married a King, either Djedefra or Khafre and she became a queen consort. So, Nebty-tepites was a niece and step-daughter of her mother's second husband.[3]
