Mentuhotep III Sankhare Horus name: Seankhtawyef
Nebty name: Seankhtawyef Golden Falcon name: Hetep Prenomen: Sankhkare Nomen: Mentuhotep Burial place: Thebes (?) ![]() Osiride statue of the 11th dynasty phraoah Mentuhotep III, restored and reinscribed by the 19th dynasty pharaoh Merneptah. Made of sandstone, from Armant. Originally from circa 2061-1991 B.C., re-inscription from 1293-1185 B.C. Now residing in the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. (from wikimedia commons - Keith Schengili-Roberts) Wife: ? Building
Program: Abydos: A
small limestone temple was erected to replace a much older Old Kingdom
mud-brick
structure. Deir
el-Bahari: The
King started the construction of a mortuary
temple
at the southern eld of Deir el-Bahari, near the temple of his father.
Little
is left of this temple. Even though the temple may not have been
completed,
it seems that the king's funerary cult functioned at the temple and
that
the king's burial was accomplished. Elephantine: A chapel
(limestone?).
One block shows the king offering to some god. Erment: An alabaster building block shows the King's horus name and his prenomen. A piece of a limestone relief shows the king dancing before Udo. Thebes: In Karnak an
alabaster
statuette depicts the King of Upper and Lower Egypt Mentuhotep Sankhare. On Thoth hill
the
king constructed a temple dedicated to Horus. There is
a columned Sed festival building nearby, but the temple
itself
was
dedicated to Horus. The temple may have already suffered some
distruction
at the end of the 11th dynasty due to an earthquake. Tod: Mentuhotep III
Sankhare
contributed much to the temple of Montu. One scene which has survived
shows
Montu and his wife Tenenet crowning Mentuhotep Sankhare.
Officials from this time period
Henu, Chief
Treasurer,
Wearer of the Royal Seal, Sole Companion, Steward. Known from a
Hammamat
Inscription detailing an expedition to Punt in year 8. Bibliography
