Ahmose-Henuttamehu
Ahmose-Henuttamehu was an important figure in ancient Egypt, known for her influential role during the New Kingdom period. She was a powerful queen who held significant political and religious authority, serving as the Great Royal Wife of pharaoh Seqenenre Tao and later as the regent for her son, pharaoh Ahmose I.
As the Great Royal Wife of Seqenenre Tao, Ahmose-Henuttamehu played a crucial role in supporting her husband's reign and assisting him in his efforts to reunify Egypt. After the death of Seqenenre Tao, she assumed the role of regent for her young son, Ahmose I, guiding the kingdom during a period of transition and instability.

Ahmes Nefertari (Ahmose Nofertari)
There are several very important female members of the royal family at the beginning of the 18th Dynasty appearing on many contemporary and later monuments, suggesting that they played some political role in their time. The most important of these is Ahmose Nefertari, the daughter of king Seqenenre, and his wife Ahhotep, the mother of king Amenhotep I. She was the wife of Ahmose, who was responsible for the defeat of the Hyksos. On monuments she is mentioned as 'king's daughter, king's sister, king's great wife, God's wife of Amun and mistress of Upper and Lower Egypt'. In later inscriptions she also appears with the title king's mother. The title god's wife is her most important, and even in contemporary inscriptions people refer to her as god's wife (and not as king's wife or king's mother). Together with Amenhotep I, Ahmose Nefertari was worshipped as deity in Thebes after her death.
