Senenmut
Senenmut (sometimes spelled Senmut, Senemut, or Senmout) was an 18th dynasty ancient Egyptian architect and government official. His name translates literally as "mother's brother."〔Hermann Ranke, Die Ägyptischen Personennamen (Glückstadt, 1935): 309, 3〕 == Family ==
Senenmut was of low commoner birth, born to literate provincial parents, Ramose and Hatnofer (or "Hatnefret") from Iuny (modern Armant). Senenmut is known to have had 3 brothers—Amenemhet, Minhotep and Pairy—and 2 sisters—Ahhotep and Nofrethor respectively.〔Peter F. Dorman. '' The Monuments of Senenmut: Problems in Historical Methadology'', London: Kegan Paul Ltd., 1988. ISBN 0-7103-0317-3. pp. 165-166.〕 However, only Minhotep is named outside chapel TT71 and tomb TT353 in an inventory on the lid of a chest found in the burial chamber of Ramose and Hatnofer.〔A. Lansing & W. Hayes, The Egyptian Expedition, 1935-1936,' BMMA 32, January 1937, Section II:24〕 More information is known about Senenmut than many other non-royal Egyptians because the joint tomb of his parents (the construction of which Senemut supervised himself) was discovered intact by the Metropolitan Museum in the mid-1930s and preserved. Christine Meyer has offered compelling evidence to show that Senenmut was a bachelor for his entire life: for instance, Senenmut is portrayed alone with his parents in the funerary stelae of his tombs; he was depicted alone, rather than with a wife, in the vignette of Chapter 110 from the Book of the Dead in tomb 353 and, finally, it was one of Senenmut's own brothers, and not one of his sons, who was charged with the execution of Senenmut's funerary rites.〔Christine Meyer, Senenmut: ''eine prosopographische Untersuchung'', Verlag Borg, (Hamburg, 1982), pp.8-9〕
