# List of Egyptian mummies (royalty)

The following is a list of mummies that include Egyptian pharaohs and their named mummified family members. Some of these mummies have been found to be remarkably intact, while others have been damaged from tomb robbers and environmental conditions (with some only having small fragments representing the mummy as a result). It was not until Pharaoh Den of the first dynasty that things such as a staircase and architectural elements were added which provided better protection from the elements.

## Identified

| Image | Name | Alias | Year of death | Dynasty | Gender | Year discovered | Short summary |
| — | Aat | The Great One | Un­known | 12th | Female | 1892 1892 | Her fragmented remains were recovered from her burial chamber in the Pyramid of Amenemhat III at Dahshur. |
| | Ahhotep II | — | Un­known | 17th | Female | 1858 1858 | The mummy of Ahhotep II was destroyed in 1859. |
| | Ahmose (princess) | Child of the Moon | Un­known | 17th | Female | 1903 1903-1905 | Princess Ahmose was buried in tomb QV47 in the Valley of the Queens. Her mummy was discovered by Ernesto Schiaparelli during his excavations from 1903-1905. |
| | Ahmose I | Amasis | 1525 1525 BC | 18th | Male | 1881 1881 | Ahmose I's mummy was discovered in 1881 within the Deir el-Bahri Cache. His name was later found written in hieroglyphs when the mummy was unwrapped. His body bears signs of having been plundered by ancient grave-robbers as the head is broken off from his body and his nose smashed. |
| | Ahmose-Henutemipet | — | Un­known | 17th/18th | Female | 1881 1881 | Ahmose-Henutemipet was found in 1881 entombed in DB320. Her remains were found badly damaged, likely by tomb robbers. |
| | Ahmose-Henuttamehu | • Child of the Moon, • Mistress of Lower Egypt | Un­known | 17th/18th | Female | 1881 1881 | Ahmose-Henuttamehu was found in 1881 entombed in DB320. Like Ahmose-Henutemipet, she was found to be an old woman when she died as her teeth are worn. |
| | Ahmose-Meritamon | Meryetamun | Un­known | 17th | Female | 1881 1881 | Ahmose-Meritamon was found entombed in DB320. Like other mummies of the era, she was found to be heavily damaged by tomb robbers. An examination of her mummy shows that she suffered a head wound prior to her death which was the possible result of falling backwards. CT scanning in 2020 estimated her to be in her 50s at death. She had extensively hardened arteries (atherosclerosis) and is suggested to have died of a heart attack. Her unusual pose is likely the position she died in and was mummified in it due to the onset of rigor mortis. |
| | Ahmose-Meritamun | Ahmose-Meritamon | Un­known | 18th | Female | 1930 1930 | Her mummy was found carefully rewrapped, which was determined to have occurred during the reign of Pinedjem I. |
| | Ahmose Inhapy | Ahmose-Inhapi | Un­known | 17th/18th | Female | 1881 1881 | Inhapi's mummy was found in the outer coffin of Lady Rai, the nurse of Inhapy's niece Queen Ahmose-Nefertari.

Her mummy was unwrapped by Gaston Maspero on June 19, 1886 where it was found to be damaged by tomb robbers. Sitkamose was about thirty years old when she died, Grafton Eliot Smith described her as a strong-built, almost masculine woman. |
| — | Ahmose-Tumerisy | — | Un­known | 17th | Female | Un­known | Ahmose-Tumerisy was an ancient Egyptian princess of the late 17th Dynasty. Since her titles were "King's Daughter" and "King's Sister", it is likely that she was a daughter of pharaoh Seqenenre Tao and a sister of pharaoh Ahmose I. Her name is known from her coffin, which is now in the Hermitage Museum. Her mummy was found in the pit MMA 1019 in Sheikh Abd el-Qurna. |
| — | Amenemhat III | Amenemhet III, Ammenemes III | Un­known | 12th | Male | 1888 1888 | Only fragments of burnt human remains were found in the looted burial chamber of the Pyramid of Amenemhat III at Hawara. These were examined by Flinders Petrie, who confirmed their owner. |
| — | Amenemhat | Son of Thutmose IV | Un­known | 18th | Male | 1903 1903 | Amenemhat was a prince of the Eighteenth Dynasty of Egypt; the son of Pharaoh Thutmose IV.

He died young and was buried in his father's tomb in the Valley of the Kings, KV43, together with his father and a sister called Tentamun. His canopic jars and possible mummy were found there. |
| | Amenemope | Usermaatre Amenemope | 0992 992 or 984 BC | 21st | Male | 1946 1946 | While the tomb was discovered in 1940, his mummy was not found until the end of World War II. The mummy was found with various jewelry and two funerary masks which are now all displayed at the Cairo Museum. |
| — | Amenemopet | — | Un­known | 18th | Female | 1857 1857 | The mummy of Amenemopet was buried in the Sheikh Abd el-Qurna cache where it was discovered in 1857. |
| | Amenhotep I | Amenophis I | 1506 1506 or 1504 BC | 18th | Male | Un­known | His mummy was moved sometime in the 20th or 21st Dynasty for safety, probably more than once. The mummy of Amenhotep I features an exquisite face mask which has caused his body not to be unwrapped by Egyptologists. |
| | Amenhotep II | Amenophis II | 1401 1401 or 1397 BC | 18th | Male | 1898 1898 | Amenhotep was found to bear a strong facial resemblance to his son, Thutmose IV. The wavy brown hair present on his head is "abundantly interspersed with white." It's estimated that he was forty to fifty at the time of death based on his worn teeth and greying hair. |
| | Amenhotep III | Amāna-Ḥātpa | 1353 1353 or 1351 BC | 18th | Male | 1898 1898 | Amenhotep's mummy shows an unusually heavy use of subcutaneous stuffing (for the period) to make the mummy look more lifelike. |
| — | Ankhesenpepi II | Ankhesenmeryre II | Un­known | 6th | Female | 1998 1998 | Ankhesenpepi's fragmented skeletal remains were recovered from her pyramid in Saqqara. |
| — | Djedkare Isesi | Tancheres | 2375 c. 2375 BC | 5th | Male | 1940s | Djedkare's fragmented skeletal remains were recovered from his pyramid at Saqqara.

His sarcophagus contained the corrected nomen of this king as well as his prenomen, Sekhemre-Heruhirmaat, "which was added in ink on the chest of the coffin." |
| | Kamose | — | 1550 1550 BC | 17th | Male | 1857 1857 | In 1857, the mummy of Kamose was discovered seemingly deliberately hidden in a pile of debris. Egyptologists Auguste Mariette, and Heinrich Brugsch noted that the mummy was in very poor shape. The name of the pharaoh inscribed on the coffin was only recognized fifty years after the original discovery, by which time the mummy, which had been left with the pile of debris on which it was found, was almost certainly long lost. |
| — | Mayet | Miit | 2010 2010 BC | 11th | Female | 1921 1921 | Mayet's position within the royal family of Mentuhotep II is disputed. It is generally assumed that she was a daughter of the king as she was about five years old when she died. |

| | Pentawer | Pentaweret; Unknown man E | 1155 1155 BC | 20th | Male | 1881 1881 | Formerly known as "Unknown Man E", a study suggests that Pentawer died by strangulation or hanging when he was 18 to 20 years old. Subsequent DNA analysis shows that the mummy was a son of Ramesses III as they both share the paternal Y-DNA haplogroup E1b1a and half their DNA. |
| — | Pepi I | Pepy | 2283 c. 2283 BC | 6th | Male | 1880 1880 | Fragments of human remains and wrappings were found in the looted burial chamber of the Pyramid of Pepi I. |

Her mummy was reburied in the Sheikh Abd el-Qurna cache along with that of several other princesses: her probable sisters Amenemopet and Tiaa; her niece Nebetia and Princesses Tatau, Henutiunu, Merytptah, Sithori and Wiay. |
| | Psusennes I | Pasibkhanu | 1001 1001 BC | 21st | Male | 1940 1940 | While his intact tomb was discovered in 1940, his mummy was not found until the end of World War II. The mummy was found with various jewelry, a silver coffin and afunerary mask which are now all displayed at the Cairo Museum. |
| — | Psusennes II | Pasibkhanu II | 943 943 BC | 21st | Male | 1940 1940 | Mummy found in the tomb of Psusennes I 1940. His mummy show signs of water damage, meaning that original tomb may have been inundated by the Nile which compelled a reburial of this king in Psusennes I's tomb. |
| | Ramesses I | Ramses | 1290 1290 BC | 19th | Male | 1817 1817 | |
| | Ramesses II | Ramesses the Great | 1213 1213 BC | 19th | Male | 1881 1881 | |

| — | Ranefer | Ranofer | Un­known | 4th | Male | Un­known | Ranefer's Eastward facing remains were found to be molded and painted in black, red, and green. The brain was left inside his skull as was custom in the early mummification process. |
| — | Senebkay | Woseribre Senebkay | 1650 BC | 16th | Male | 2014 2014 | The skeleton of Senebkay shows he was around 5 feet 10 inches (1.78 metres) tall and that he died at the age of 35 to 40 from multiple wounds, most likely sustained in battle. |
| — | Senusret II | Sesostris II | 1878 BC | 12th | Male | 1890 1890 | Fragments of human remains were found in the looted burial chamber of the Pyramid of Senusret II and examined by Flinders Petrie. All that remains of Senusret's mummy are his leg bones. |
| | Seqenenre Tao | • Seqenera Djehuty-aa, • Sekenenra Taa | Un­known | 17th | Male | 1881 1881 | In 2021, a CT scan of his mummy revealed that he died in his forties, possibly on a battlefield, while his deformed hands imply that he was possibly imprisoned with his hands tied. A reconstruction of his death suggests that Seqenenre was executed by the Hyksos king Apepi. |
| — | Sesheshet | Sesh | Un­known | 6th | Female | 2009 2009 | Sesheshet's mummy was found wrapped in cloth, and her sarcophagus appeared to have been looted. Robbers stole most of the valuables leaving the body parts behind. |

## Disputed

The following entries are either previously identified mummies that are now in dispute or mummies whose identity is still in dispute. Over time through the advance in technology, new information comes to light that discredits old findings and beliefs. The mummies that have been lost or destroyed since initial discovery may never be properly identified.
| Image | Assumed name(s) | Alias | Dynasty | Sex | Year discovered | Description |
| | Ahmose-Nefertari | — | 18th | Female | 1881 1881 | Ahmose-Nefertari is assumed to have been retrieved from her tomb at the end of the New Kingdom and moved to the royal cache in DB320. Her presumed body, with no identification marks, was discovered in the 19th century and unwrapped in 1885 by Emile Brugsch but this identification has been challenged. When the mummy was found it emitted such a bad odor that it was reburied on museum grounds in Cairo until the offensive smell abated. If this is Ahmose-Nefertari, then she was determined to have died in her 70s. The mummy's hair had been thinning and plaits of false hair had been woven in with its own to cover this up. The body also had been damaged in antiquity and was missing its right hand. Despite the disputed attribution, the mummy was included in the 2021 Pharaohs' Golden Parade. |
| | Ahmose Sapair | — | 18th | Male | 1881 1881 | In 1881, a mummy of a 5- to 6-year-old boy was found in cache (DB320) and identified as Ahmose-Sipair. This was disputed as Prince Ahmose-Sipair is always portrayed as an adult on the coffin of the scribe and other antiquities, thus the child-mummy cannot be his. |
| | Akhenaten or Smenkhkare | KV55 mummy | 18th | Male | 1907 1907 | Uncertainty remains over the identity of this mummy as the young age at death is inconsistent with Akhenaten's reign. CT scans done in 2010 strongly suggest that the mummy may be Pharaoh Smenkhkare. |
| — | Ankhesenamun | KV21A | 18th | Female | 1817 1817 | Assumed to be Ankhesenamun, as she is the mother of the two fetuses found in Tutankhamun's tomb. Uncertainty remains if the mummy found in KV55 is accepted to be Akhenaten. She is also known as mummy KV21A, after the tomb that she was discovered in. |
| | Hatshepsut | KV60A | 18th | Female | 1903 1903 | In 1903, Howard Carter had discovered tomb KV60 in the Valley of the Kings. It contained two female mummies: one identified as Hatshepsut's wet nurse and the other unidentified. The latter of the two (KV60A), was removed from the tomb in 2007 and identified as Hatshepsut by inspecting the mouth. These results have since been disputed from a 2011 study which cited a misplaced molar. |
| | Beketaten, Nebetah or Nefertiti | The Younger Lady | 18th | Female | 1898 1898 | This mummy was found lying in a side chamber of KV35. The body was extensively damaged by past tomb robbers which caused numerous holes. Early speculation was that the mummy belonged to Queen Nefertiti. DNA testing published in 2010 revealed The Younger Lady is a daughter of Pharaoh Amenhotep III and his chief wife Tiye and the mother of Tutankhamun. This report concluded that the mummy is likely Beketaten, or Nebetah. Despite the DNA results, Egyptologists such as Marc Gabolde and Aidan Dodson support the identification of this body as that of Nefertiti. |
| | Merenre Nemtyemsaf I | — | 6th | Male | 1881 1881 | A mummy was uncovered in 1881 by Émile and Heinrich Karl Brugsch in the black basalt sarcophagus of the burial chamber of the Pyramid of Merenre. The mummy is that of a 1.66 m (5.4 ft)-tall man, already in a poor condition at discovery as ancient tomb robbers had partially torn off its wrappings. The Brugsch brothers further damaged the mummy while transporting it back to Cairo. Preliminary forensic analyses indicated that it belonged to a young man, with possible traces of his sidelock of youth still visible at the time of discovery. The identity of the mummy remains uncertain as Grafton Elliot Smith, who performed these analyses, observed that the technique employed for the wrapping was typical of the 18th Dynasty rather than the 6th. Re-wrapping of older mummies are known to have occurred, even during the New Kingdom, so that this observation does not necessarily preclude that the mummy be that of Merenre. The mummy has not been studied since and its identification remains uncertain. |
| | Sanakht | — | 3rd | Male | 1901 1901 | A mummy was uncovered in 1881 by John Garstang in the large mastaba K2 at Beit Khallaf. The mummy was over 1.87 m (6 ft 1+1⁄2 in) tall, which is considerably taller than the 1.67 m (5 ft 6 in) average of prehistoric and later Egyptians. The specimen's skull was very large and capacious. Although his cranial index was unusually broad and almost brachycephalic, the proportions of his long bones were tropically adapted like those of most other ancient Egyptians; especially those from the predynastic period. His overall cranial features, however, were closer to those of dynastic period Egyptian skulls. It was long thought that the mummy inside mastaba K2 at Beit Khallaf was Sanakht's, as excavations there yielded relief fragments bearing his name. However, some Egyptologists now regard this mastaba as the burial of a high official, prince or queen rather than that of a pharaoh, while others continue to support the first hypothesis. |
| | Setnakhte | The mummy in the boat | 20th | Male | 1898 1898 | The alleged mummy of Setnakhte has never been identified with certainty, although the so–called "mummy in the boat" found in KV35 was sometimes identified with him, an attribution rejected by Aidan Dodson who rather believes the body belonged to a royal family member of Amenhotep II of the 18th Dynasty. In any case the mummy was destroyed by looters in 1901, thus preventing any analysis on it. |
| — | Sneferu | — | 4th | Male | 1950 1950 | Fragments of human remains and wrappings were found in the burial chamber of the Red Pyramid and examined by Dr. Ahmed Mahmud el Batrawi. The remains belonged to a middle-aged man and the wrappings were consistent with Old Kingdom mummification techniques. It is uncertain if these remains belong to Sneferu. |
| | Tetisheri | Unknown woman B | 17th/18th | Female | 1881 1881 | No tomb has yet been conclusively identified with Queen Tetisheri, though a mummy that may be hers was included among other members of the royal family that were reburied in the Royal Cache. |
| | Thutmose I or Ahmose Sapair | — | 18th | Male | 1881 1881 | Egyptologist Gaston Maspero thought this was the mummy of Thutmose I largely on the strength of familial resemblance to the mummies of Thutmose II and Thutmose III. In 2007 though, Dr. Zahi Hawass announced that the mummy is a thirty-year-old man who had died as a result of an arrow wound to the chest. Due to the young age of the mummy and the cause of death, it was determined that the mummy was probably not of Thutmose I and the mummy could actually be Ahmose Sapair. Despite this, the mummy was included in the 2021 Pharaohs' Golden Parade. |
| | Unknown | Qurna Queen | 17th | Female | 1908 1908 | The quality of the Qurna Queen's burial goods and the location of her grave near the valley of the kings have lead researchers to conclude that she was a senior member of the royal family. Damage to her coffin means her name is lost. |
