Tomb

In 2012, Archaeologists from the Czech Institute of Egyptology unearthed her tomb located in the Abusir region, south of Cairo.^[4][5] Her burial was found within the rock-cut tomb, which most likely belonged to her husband, whose name is unknown. He may have been related to the Shepseskafankh Family.

The tomb complex contained six burial shafts. The biggest one most likely belonged to the princess's husband. The second shaft, approximately 10 meters deep, with an unfinished burial chamber on the west. Inside this chamber, human remains of a woman, likely Sheretnebty were found. She was around 25 to 40 years old at the time of her death.^[2]
