Isetnofret (or Isis-nofret or Isitnofret) (Ancient Egyptian: "the beautiful Isis") was one of the Great Royal Wives of Pharaoh Ramesses II and was the mother of his heir, Merneptah. She was one of the most prominent of the royal wives, along with Nefertari, and was the chief queen after Nefertari's death (around the 24th year of the pharaoh's reign). ==Family== The parents of Isetnofret are not known. She must have married Ramesses II even before he came to the throne as her eldest children already appear in scenes from the time of Seti I. She had at least three sons and one daughter. Her children include: * Prince Ramesses, Crown Prince from Year 25 to 50 of Ramesses II〔Aidan Dodson & Dyan Hilton, The Complete Royal Families of Ancient Egypt, Thames & Hudson (2004), p.173〕 * Princess-Queen Bintanath, firstborn daughter and later wife of Ramesses〔Dodson & Hilton, p.170〕 * Prince Khaemwaset, High Priest of Ptah. Crown Prince from Year 50 to 55 of Ramesses II〔 * Pharaoh Merneptah, Ramesses' 13th son and ultimate successor (he outlived the first 12 princes) * Princess Isetnofret B (?), possible wife of Merenptah as Isetnofret II〔Dodson & Hilton, p.171〕 Prince Sethi and Princess Nebettawy have been suggested as further children of Isetnofret, but they are more likely to be the children of Nefertari (or even some other mother).〔Dodson & Hilton, p.167〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Isetnofret」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
