Queens & Consorts of 22nd Dynasty Egypt: Nesitaudjatakhet, Wife of Shoshenq II (r. 887-885 BC)


Nesitaudjatakhet, an Egyptian queen of the 22nd Dynasty, was the wife of Shoshenq II (r. 887-885 BC). Her lineage is unknown.

The stela of Pasenhor traces royal lineages back to Buyuwawa, the Libyan considered the ancestor of the Meshwesh, a Berber tribe whose lineage helped produce Egypt’s 22nd Dynasty founded by Shoshenq I (r. 943-922 BC).

Nesitaudjatakhet was the mother of Osorkon D.

Her husband, Shoshenq II, was likely the son of Osorkon I (r. 922-887 BC).

Shoshenq II was succeeded by Takelot I (r. 885-872 BC), who was then succeeded by Osorkon II (r. 872-837 BC).
