Shepset-ipet

Shepset-ipet (also read as Shepsetipet and Shepset-ipwt) was an ancient Egyptian princess living during the late 2nd Dynasty.

The artistic layout and the body proportions represented on her slab stela were common during the late 2nd Dynasty.

During this era, slab stelas depicting the deceased sitting before an offering table became very popular and they were displayed in special niches inside the burial chamber.

[1] Shepset-ipet is depicted as a seated woman, she wears a finely curled hair fashion ending in long, delicate dreadlocks.

The spot where Shepset-ipet's name was encarved shows traces of revisions, thus the stela was possibly once created for another person.
