Satdjehuty, whose name means “Daughter of Thoth,” was the daughter of King Senakhtenre Ahmose and Queen Tetisheri. She became both sister and wife to her brother, King Seqenenre Tao, holding multiple titles such as King’s Wife, King’s Sister, and King’s Daughter.

She was also the sister of Queens Ahhotep I and Ahmose-Inhapy, who, like her, were sister-wives to Seqenenre Tao. With Seqenenre, Satdjehuty had a daughter named Ahmose (“Child of the Moon”), whose tomb (QV47) is believed to be the first constructed in the Valley of the Queens. The linen shroud found with Princess Ahmose bore the titles of her mother.

Satdjehuty died around 1545–1513 BCE, likely as an elderly woman during the reign of Amenhotep I, though some scholars suggest she may have outlived both Amenhotep I and his father, Ahmose I.

Her tomb was discovered in 1820, containing her mummy, coffin, golden mask, a heart scarab, and linen donated by her niece, Queen Ahmose-Nefertari. The inscription on the linen read:

“Given in the favor of the God’s Wife, King’s Wife, and King’s Mother Ahmose-Nefertari, may she live, to Satdjehuty.”

Satdjehuty’s funerary objects were divided between Germany and Britain. Today, her mummy mask is displayed at the British Museum, while fragments of her coffin are housed in the Staatliches Museum Ägyptischer Kunst in Munich.

Her mask, made of cartonnage decorated with pigment and gold leaf, once bore her name at the base of each hieroglyphic column. Though the inscriptions are partly lost, two columns of hieroglyphs remain visible across the chest.
