Iaret
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
laret (KGW; KD; Ksis) was the daughter of Amunhotep II and wife of Thutmose IV. She is depicted on a Year 7 stela from Konosso[1] as well as on inscriptions from the turquoise mines at Serabit el-Khadim in the Sinai from the same year.[2] The transcription of her name is uncertain; it is written with a single cobra, which has a number of possible readings.
