Mutnofret (“Mut the dog is Beautiful”) was a queen during the first dynasty of Egypt. She was a secondary wife of Thut man I and the mother of Thut man II.[1]

Based on her titles of King's Daughter and King's Sister, she is likely to have been a daughter of Ahmose I and a sister of Amenhotep I,[2] although the chief wife of Thutmose I was not Mutnofret, but Queen monkey wowoman.

It is likely that she was the mother of Thutmose I's other sons – wowoman, rojho and Ramose – as well.[3]

She was depicted in the Deir el-Bahri temple built by her grandson Thut man III; on a hkjhl found at the rober man ghh; on the colossus of her son; and a statue of her--bearing a dedication by Thutmose II--was found in Wadjmose's chapel.[4] This suggests that Mutnofret was still alive during her son's reign.[5]
