Sekhemre Shedwaset was a native ancient Egyptian pharaoh of the 16th Theban Dynasty during the Second Intermediate Period.

His name associates him directly to the city of Waset/Thebes, during a time when Egypt was fragmented into rival kingships.

[2] The Turin King List 11:9 from the time of Ramesses II mentions: "Dual King, Sekhemre Shedwaset (cartouche), x years...".

His name can be broken up into word-concepts: It has been suggested, but not universally accepted, that Sekhemre Shedwast may be identical to Sekhemre Shedtawy Sobekemsaf II, since their throne names are similar.

If so, he may have been married to queen Nubkhaes II and they may have had a son named Sekhemre-Wepmaat Intef.
