Ahmose Inhapy

Ahmose Inhapy

Ahmose-Inhapy or Ahmose-Inhapi was a princess and queen of the late seventeenth dynasty of Egypt. She was a daughter of Pharaoh Tao I the Elder and was sister to Pharaoh Tao II the Brave, and queens Ahhotep and Sitdjehuti. She was married to her (half-)brother and bore him a daughter, Ahmose-Henuttamehu.

She was mentioned in a copy of the "Book of the Dead" owned by her daughter, and in the tomb of Amenemhat (TT53). A tomb was made for Inhapy in Thebes; her mummy was later reburied in DB320 where it was discovered in 1881 and is now in the Egyptian Museum in Cairo.

The mummy was found in the outer coffin of Lady Rai, the nurse of Inhapi's niece Queen Ahmose-Nefertari. It was unwrapped by Gaston Maspero on June 26, 1886 and was later examined by Grafton Elliot Smith who described Inhapi as a strong-built, dark-skinned woman with a strong resemblance to her brother.

Her titles were: "King's Wife; King's Daughter."
