Amun-Her-Khepesh-Ef (son of Senusret III)

Amun-Her-Khepesh-Ef was an ancient Egyptian prince who lived during the 12th Dynasty, a period of the Middle Kingdom. He was a son of Pharaoh Senusret III. Historical records concerning Amun-Her-Khepesh-Ef are relatively scarce, but he is primarily known from a number of monuments and objects bearing his name and titles.

While the precise details of his life and role in the royal court are not entirely clear due to the limited surviving evidence, his existence confirms the presence of offspring for Senusret III. As a prince, Amun-Her-Khepesh-Ef likely received a privileged education and held a position of influence, albeit one not as prominent as that of the heir apparent. His name, incorporating the god Amun and the element "Her-Khepesh-Ef" (meaning "His Strength is His Arm"), is a testament to the religious and military importance of the era.

The surviving artifacts bearing his name, often found in connection with funerary contexts, suggest that he was revered after his death. Further archaeological discoveries could potentially shed more light on his life and significance within the royal family of Senusret III. The study of his name and associated objects contributes to a broader understanding of the royal family dynamics and religious beliefs of the Middle Kingdom period.
