- Beketamun
Beketamun or Beket was a princess of the
Eighteenth dynasty of Egypt , a daughter of PharaohThutmose III [dodson, p.138] . Her name means “Handmaid of Amun”.Her name is inscribed on a faience votive object (together with her father's cartouche) found in
Deir el-Bahri (now in Boston). She is also mentioned on a wooden staff of her servant, Amenmose, and probably on a scarab (now in theBritish Museum ). It is possible that she is the princess standing behind Princess Meritamen in theHathor chapel in Deir el-Bahri. [Dodson & Hilton, op.cit., p.138]ources
