Khaemwaset (20th dynasty)
- Khaemwaset (20th dynasty)
Khaemwaset or Khaemwase was an Ancient Egyptian prince, a son of Pharaoh Ramesses III. His name can also be found as "Ramesses Khaemwaset."[dodson, p.192] ]
Like many of his brothers, he was named after a son of Ramesses II, Khaemwaset, and like the 19th dynasty Khaemwaset, he was a priest of Ptah in Memphis (though, unlike his namesake, not the high priest, only a "sem"-priest) [Dodson & Hilton, op.cit., p.186] . He is depicted in his father's temple at Medinet Habu.[ Both Khaemwaset and his brother Pareherwenemef are mentioned as "Eldest King's Son," which probably means that they were firstborn sons of different mothers [Dodson & Hilton, op.cit., p.190] .]
His well preserved tomb, QV44 (in the Valley of the Queens) was excavated by Italian archaeologists in 1903-1904.[Alberto Siliotti: Guide to the Valley of the Kings. Barnes and Noble (1997). ISBN 88-8095-496-2] A canopic jar of his is now in the Egyptian Museum in Cairo; his sarcophagus and probable mummy is in the Museo Egizio Turin [Dodson & Hilton, op.cit., p.193] . He outlived his father and was buried under the reign of his brother Ramesses IV, since the text on the sarcophagus mentions Ramesses IV][.]
