Khnumhotep and Niankhkhnum

Khnumhotep (pronunciation: xaˈnaːmaw-ˈħatpew) and Niankhkhnum (pronunciation: nij-daˌnax-xaˈnaːmaw) 〔On the Old Kingdom sound correspondences of Egyptological transcription symbols cf. Frank Kammerzell, Old Egyptian and Pre-Old Egyptian: Tracing Linguistic Diversity in Archaic Egypt and the Creation of the Egyptian Language, in: ''Texte und Denkmäler des ägyptischen Alten Reiches'', ed. by Stephan J. Seidlmayer, Thesaurus Lingua Aegyptiae 3, Achet 2001, p. 230. http://www.archaeologie.hu-berlin.de/aegy_anoa/publications/kammerzell_old-egyptian-and-pre-old-egyptian/at_download/file〕 were ancient Egyptian royal servants. They shared the title of Overseer of the Manicurists in the Palace of King Niuserre during the Fifth Dynasty of Egyptian pharaohs, c. 2400 BCE. They were buried together and are listed as "royal confidants" in their joint tomb.〔Michael Rice, ''Who's Who in Ancient Egypt'', Routledge 2001, ISBN 0-415-15448-0 p.98〕

Khnumhotep and Niankhkhnum were ancient Egyptian royal servants and are believed by some to be the first recorded same-sex couple in history.〔Dowson, ''op.cit.'', pp.96ff.〕
The proposed homosexual nature of Khnumhotep and Niankhkhnum has been commented on the popular press, and the idea seems to (partially) stem from the depictions of the two men standing nose to nose and embracing.〔(Evidence of gay relationships exists as early as 2400 B.C. ) Dallas Morning News〕〔(Mwah ... is this the first recorded gay kiss? ) by W. Holland in the Sunday Times〕 Niankhkhnum's wife, depicted in a banquet scene, was almost completely erased in ancient times, and in other pictures Khnumhotep occupies the position usually designated for a wife. Their official titles were "Overseers of the Manicurists of the Palace of the King".〔Stern Keith ''Queers in History'' Dallas, Texas:2009 BenBella Books Page 342〕
Critics argue that both men appear with their respective wives and children, suggesting the men were brothers, rather than lovers.〔〔Lorna Oakes, Pyramids Temples and Tombs of Ancient Egypt: An Illustrated Atlas of the Land of the Pharaohs, Hermes House:Anness Publishing Ltd, 2003. p.88〕
Khnumhotep and Niankhkhnum are depicted in the tomb with their respective families. It has been proposed that they were the sons of Khabaw-khufu and Rewedzawes. They appear to have had three brothers named Titi, Nefernisut, and Kahersetef. Three possible sisters are also attested. They are named Neferhotep-hewetherew, Mehewet and Ptah-heseten.
Niankhkhnum's wife was named Khentikawes. They appear in the tomb with three sons named Hem-re, Qed-unas and Khnumhezewef. Three daughters are mentioned as well and their names are Hemet-re, Khewiten-re and Nebet. At least one grandson is mentioned. Irin-akheti was the son of Hem-re and his wife, Tjeset.
Khnumhotep had a wife by the name of Khenut. Khnumhotep and Khenut had at least five sons named Ptahshepses, Ptahneferkhu, Kaizebi, Khnumheswef and Niankhkhnum -the younger (named after his uncle) as well as a daughter named Rewedzawes.〔(The mastaba of Niankhkhnum and Khnumhotep ) by J. Hirst on Osirisnet.net〕
