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).
Isetnofret (3s.t-nfr.t; also spelled as Isetneferet, Isisnofret etc.) was an ancient Egyptian female name, meaning “ Isis is beautiful”.
- Queen Isetnofret I, a wife of Pharaoh Ramesses II and mother of Pharaoh Merenptah. Several of her descendants shared her name:
- Princess Isetnofret B, sixth daughter of Ramesses II, depicted on the facade of the greater Abu Simbel temple. Often thought to be a daughter of Queen Isetnofret, however, this identification is only based on the identical names and is not supported by other evidence; the stelae of Prince Khaemwaset, which depict his closest family members, show only Prince Ramesses, Queen Bintanath and Prince Merenptah along with Khaemwaset and his parents. A letter, in which two of her servants, Pentawer and Pawekhed inquire about her health and wish her the blessings of Ptah, was found.
- Princess Isetnofret C, daughter of Prince Khaemwese, thus a granddaughter of Queen Isetnofret. A tomb of a woman called Isetnofret, discovered in 2009, was originally reported to belong to the daughter of Khaemwaset. Zahi Hawass, though, dated it earlier, to the 18th dynasty.
- Queen Isetnofret II, wife of Merenptah. She is identical with one of the aforementioned two Isetnofrets, possibly the second one, since she does not have the title King's Daughter, which she would use if she was the daughter of Ramesses. She is depicted in a chapel in Gebel es-Silsileh on a statue (usurped by Merenptah from Amenhotep III), also, on a stela of Vizier Panehsy and on another statue.
- Princess Isetnofret D, likely a daughter of Merenptah.
Isetnofret was an Ancient Egyptian woman and daughter of the high priest of Ptah and king's son Khaemweset (lived around 1200 BC). She appears on two monuments close to her father. On a statue of Khaemweset found at Medinet Madi she is shown on the back pillar and called daughter of his body. On a relief found at Saqqara she is called his beloved daughter and king's daughter. Evidently she was not the daughter of a king, but was the granddaughter of king Ramses II, as Khaemweset was the son of the latter. Isetnofret was most likely buried at Saqqara close to a monument dedicated to Khaemweset. There a tomb was discovered with a huge limestone sarcophagus that is inscribed for the noble woman Isetnofret. The place of the tomb next to the building dedicated to Khaemwaset, makes it very likely that this is the burial of his daughter Isetnofret.
