About Khaemtir

Khaemtir (also written as Khaemtjitry) was a Viceroy of Kush and Vizier of Ancient Egypt. He served during the reign of Amenmesse and Seti II.

Viceroy of Kush under Merneptah Monuments attesting to Khaemtir's service as Viceroy mostly stem from Buhen, a Nubian fortress located at the Second Cataract.

Krauss for instance points out there is no evidence to support the theory that the Viceroy Khaemtir, whom he dates to the reign of Merenptah, and the Vizier Khaemtir from the reign of Amenmesse are one and the same person.
