Webensenu
Webensenu was an ancient Egyptian prince of the 18th dynasty. He was a son of Pharaoh Amenhotep II.[1]
He is mentioned, along with his brother Nedjem, on a statue of Minmose, overseer of the works in Karnak.[2] He died as a child and was buried in his father's tomb, KV35, where there were found his canopic jars and shabtis.[3] His mummy is still there,[4] and it indicates that he died around the age of ten.
