Nimlot C was a High Priest of Amun at Thebes during the reign of pharaoh Osorkon II of the 22nd Dynasty.

From the stela of Pasenhor it is known that Nimlot C was a son of pharaoh Osorkon II and his queen Djedmutesankh (her name is also found written "Mut-udj-ankhes").

[2] Even before becoming High Priest of Amun he already held various positions such as Count, Governor of Upper Egypt, General and army leader, High Priest of Heryshaf, Chief of Pi-Sekhemkheperre and of Herakleopolis, as shown on the Cairo Museum stele JdE 45327 dating to Year 16 of Osorkon II.

[3] After this date he received the office of High Priest of Amun in Thebes,[4] leaving the government of Herakleopolis to one of his sons.

[7] This is established from the reliefs of Temple J at Karnak which depicts the High Priest Takelot F as the dedicant at a religious ceremony and mentions the ruling king of Egypt as pharaoh Osorkon II.
