Seneb (king's son)
Seneb was an ancient Egyptian living in the Thirteenth Dynasty about 1750 BC. He is known from a number of sources around king Sobekhotep III, who was his brother. The father of Seneb was the god's father Mentuhotep, his mother was the king's mother called Iuhetibu. Seneb bears the title king's son, although he was not the son of a king. In the Thirteenth Dynasty the title king's son was often used as title of honor and did not automatically mean that the title bearer was the son of a king. From a stela now in Vienna Seneb's own family is known. Her wife was called Nebtit. One son was the elder of the hall Sobekhotep. A sister was the lady of the house Iuhetibu, and another brother was the trainer of the dogs Mentuhotep. The latter two children were evidently named after their grandparents. Another daughter was called Henut.
