Sematawytefnakht
Sematawytefnakht〔, pp. 467-9〕 or Somtutefnakht〔, p. 197〕〔, pp. 343-4〕 and other variants (''floruit'' 330s BCE), was an ancient Egyptian high official, known for having witnessed the conquest of Persian Egypt by the hands of Alexander the Great.
==Biography==
Sematawytefnakht probably began his successful career under Nectanebo II of the 30th Dynasty. After the Achaemenid conquest of Egypt in 343 BCE by the hands of Artaxerxes III, Sematawytefnakht swore allegiance to the new foreign pharaoh of Egypt, thus becaming a sort of collaborationist.〔 Is known by his limestone funerary stela – originally from a temple in Herakleopolis Magna, then brought to the temple of Isis at Pompeii and now exhibited at Naples National Archaeological Museum (inv. 1035) – that Sematawytefnakht entered in Persian service and later fought against Alexander's army under Darius III.〔 Frightened by Alexander's seemingly unstoppable advance and previously advised in a dream by Heryshaf, local deity of his hometown, he fled from the battlefield and returned to Herakleopolis Magna in order to resume his religious offices, thus switching his allegiance once more when, shortly after, Alexander conquered Egypt (332 BCE).〔〔 At the end of his life, Sematawytefnakht praised and thanked Heryshaf for advicing him in the dream, thus allowing him to live a fulfilled life.〔
During his life, Sematawytefnakht held several high-status charges such as ''High Priest of Sekhmet, Priest of Horus, Royal treasurer, Sole companion, prince'' and ''count''.〔
