Khensa

Khensa (Khenensaiuw) was a Nubian queen dated to the Twenty-fifth Dynasty of Egypt.

Khensa is named as a King's Wife and King's Sister together with King Piye. This suggests she is the sister-wife of the Pharaoh and hence likely a daughter of Kashta and Pebatjma.

Her full titles include: Noble Lady , Great of Praises , Sweet of Love , Beloved one of Wadjet , Mistress of Grace , Lady of all Woman , King's Wife , Great King's Wife , Lady of Upper and Lower Egypt , Lady of the Two Lands , King's Daughter , King's Sister , and the one who pacifies the King every day .

Khensa is attested on a statue Louvre E 3915 - with Piye - dedicated to the goddess Bastet. She was buried in a pyramid at el-Kurru (Ku4). The tomb still contained parts of the funerary equipment such as an offering table, vases, canopic jars, etc.
