(about 1872 BC to about 1852 BC) in Dahshur. Therefore it is often assumed that she was the daughter of this ruler, who was probably under King Sesostris III. or Amenemhet III. was buried.

Menet was buried in a burial chamber, which branches off from a corridor. On this underground corridor, there were various burials of royal ladies whose burial chambers were all accessible from the main passage. However, all these burials were already deprived of their rediscovery in modern times. Menet himself was once buried in a limestone chimney. This bore a short inscription, which names their titles and their names. Most other sarcophagi in the neighboring burial chambers, on the other hand, were unlabelled. Edit source text
