Neith-hotep (also read as Neith-hetepjw) was an Ancient Egyptianqueen consort living during the early 1st dynasty. According to newest discoveries, Neith-hotep was the spouse of king (pharaoh) Hor-Aha and the motherly co-regent of king Djer. Neith-hotep was thus maybe the first known female pharaoh of Egypt.
Identity
Name
Neithhotep's name is connected to Neith, the goddess of war and hunting. This goes d'accord with an old name fashion during the first dynasty: many queens (Meritneith, for example) and princesses (such as Aha-Neith, Her-Neith, Nakht-Neith and Qa'-Neith) connected their names with Neith, too.
Titles
As a queen, Neithhotep bore several elite and pious titles:
Foremost of the women (Egypt. Khenty wat)
Consort of the Two Ladies (Egypt. Semat Nebty)
Attestations
Neithhotep's name was found at Helwan, Abydos and Naqada. It appears on clay seal impressions, on ivory tags and as inscriptions on stone bowls. Most of the objects were found in her burial complex and in the tombs of Aha and Djer. On several clay seals, Neithhotep's name was written inside a double serekh, the midst of the merged serekhs is perched by a divine standart of Neith. One unusual seal impression gives the name diction Hetepjw.

This was because of one of the foundational myths of Egypt in which the god Osiris is depicted as the first king and his son Horus as his successor; therefore, only males could rule.

Ancient Egypt was a civilisation where women exercised greater freedom than most other cultures in the ancient world. So it isn't surprising that there were many important female rulers throughout Egypt’s expansive history. Although a number of these women ruled Egypt in their own right, they all required a male from their lineage, whether it be their father or a son who was not yet old enough to rule, to justify their claim to power. This was because of one of the foundational myths of Egypt in which the god Osiris is depicted as the first king and his son Horus as his successor; therefore, only males could rule.

Neith-hotep (also read as Neith-hetepjw) was an Ancient Egyptianqueen consort living during the early 1st dynasty. According to newest discoveries, Neith-hotep was the spouse of king (pharaoh) Hor-Aha and the motherly co-regent of king Djer. Neith-hotep was thus maybe the first known female pharaoh of Egypt.
Identity
Name
Neithhotep's name is connected to Neith, the goddess of war and hunting. This goes d'accord with an old name fashion during the first dynasty: many queens (Meritneith, for example) and princesses (such as Aha-Neith, Her-Neith, Nakht-Neith and Qa'-Neith) connected their names with Neith, too.
Titles
As a queen, Neithhotep bore several elite and pious titles:
Foremost of the women (Egypt. Khenty wat)
Consort of the Two Ladies (Egypt. Semat Nebty)
Attestations
Neithhotep's name was found at Helwan, Abydos and Naqada. It appears on clay seal impressions, on ivory tags and as inscriptions on stone bowls. Most of the objects were found in her burial complex and in the tombs of Aha and Djer. On several clay seals, Neithhotep's name was written inside a double serekh, the midst of the merged serekhs is perched by a divine standart of Neith. One unusual seal impression gives the name diction Hetepjw.
