The Ancient Egyptian noble Sitre In (or Sitra In, or Sit-re known as In or Inet) was buried in the Valley of the Kings, in tomb KV60. She has been identified as the nurse of Hatshepsut. A life-sized statue shows her holding her charge. [Eric H. Cline, David B. O'Connor, "Thutmose III: A New Biography", University of Michigan Press 2006, ISBN 0472114670 p.98] Although not a member of the royal family, she received the honour of a burial in the royal necropolis.
