Nebtu was an ancient Egyptian, the wife of Thutmose III.[1]
She is depicted on a pillar in Thutmose's tomb KV34 where the pharaoh leads a procession of his family members – his two Great Royal Wives Merytre-Hatshepsut and Satiah, his wife Nebtu and his daughter Nefertari. The names of Satiah and Nefertari[a] are followed by maa kheru, showing that they were already dead when the tomb was made. Unlike the names of the other two wives, Nebtu's name is not enclosed in a cartouche.[2]
She had an estate, the steward, Nebamun was buried in TT24.[3]
