For me the god’s wife repeated favors, the king’s great wife Maatkare justified; I brought up her eldest (daughter), the princess Neferura, justified, while she was (still) a child at the breast. [2] Neferure’s next tutor was Senenmut. [4] Senenmut is known from many statues depicting him with his young charge.
Senimen was called teacher of the god's body of the god's wife Neferure, nurse of the daughter of the god's wife Hatshepsut and steward of the king's daughter. Senimen was evidently at one point in his career appointed to become the teacher of Neferure. He was also administrator of Neferure's domains. The timing of this appointment is unclear.
Akhenaten and Nefertiti are shown seated in a kiosk, receiving tribute from foreign lands. The daughters of the royal couple are shown standing behind their parents. Neferure is the middle daughter in the lower register. She is holding a gazelle in her right arm and a lotus flower in her left.

Other scenes elsewhere show the God's Wife of Amun worshiping the deities, being purified in the sacred lake, and following the king into the ...

[37] [38] The birth of this grandchild was received as happy news by the Hittite king and queen, as indicated by some of the diplomatic correspondence. [39]
Some blocks from the Chapel are decorated with three sets of scenes in which an unnamed God’s Wife of Amun is shown performing her duties. Because of the time period at which the chapel was built, it is likely that this God's Wife is Neferure, the daughter of Hatshepsut and Thutmose II. These scenes make clear that as God's Wife she had an ...
Senenmut first enters the historical record on a national level as the "Steward of the God's Wife" and "Steward of the King's Daughter" ().Some Egyptologists place Senenmut's entry into royal service during the reign of Thutmose I, but it is far more likely that it occurred during either the reign of Thutmose II or while Hatshepsut was still regent and not pharaoh.
