Nitocris II
Nitocris II (or Nitokris II,〔 Nitocris B,〔 § 365 n. 951; table 13A〕 Egyptian: ''(unicode:Nt-jqrt)'', Nitiqret) was an ancient Egyptian princess and priestess during the reign of pharaoh Amasis II of the 26th Dynasty. ==Biography== Daughter of Amasis II,〔 Nitocris II is mainly attested by a monument now in Chicago (OI 10584) on which she is called ''High Priest of Amun''; the same monument also claim that the God's Wife of Amun Ankhnesneferibre was her "mother". Nitocris' title is notable because she is the last attested holder of the once influential office of High Priest of Amun at Thebes, as well as the only known female holder;〔 she may have reached this office around 560 BCE.〔 The fact that Ankhnesneferibre is called her "mother" suggest that Nitocris also held the office of Divine Adoratrice of Amun〔 which usually led to the charge of God's Wife of Amun after the adoptive mother's death. However, it seems that Nitocris never managed to reach the latter position because these offices were abolished soon after the Persian invasion of Egypt in 525 BCE.
