Together they appear on several monuments found in Lower Nubia, although her name is not preserved in the tomb of Amenhotep called Huy. She appears also on a statue of Khaemwaset, who was the brother of the commader Seti, who was the father of king Ramesses I. However, it is not certain that the Khaemwaset, brother of Seti is identical with Khaemwaset, husband of Taemwadjsy and known from Nubian sources. Perhaps she married Khaemwaset after the death of Amenhotep called Huy. Although it is also possible that she married Khaemwaset first and married Amenhotep called Huy after the first had died. There are two sons known from her marriage with Amenhotep called Huyː Tjuri, Charioteer of the King, King’s Envoy, First Stable Master and Paser, Overseer of Horse, Stable Master, Fanbearer.. Paser followed his father in the position of a viceroy of Kush. (en)
