#Discover_In_History Ukhhotep II The ancient Egyptian official during the reign of pharaoh Senusret I of the 12th Dynasty. Ukhhotep II was a nomarch of the 14th nomos of Upper Egypt, headquartered in Cusae. His father was the nomarch Senebi I while his mother was a lady called Mersi. His wife was Djehutyhotep, and the couple had at least two children to whom the same name as Ukhhotep's parents was given: Senebi II and Mersi Ukhhotep II is mainly known because of his tomb (B2), located in the necropolis of Meir, which was excavated in the early 20th century by British Egyptologist Aylward M. Inside the tomb, along the West and South walls, there are many inscriptions dedicated to Osiris and Horus. The tomb is separated from that of Ukhhotep's father Senebi I (B1) only by a thin partition wall. The tomb stands from floor to ceiling at 270 cm with a small undecorated doorway leading to the burial chamber. #Ancient_Pharaonic_History
