Simontu

12th Dynasty

Simontu was a 12th Dynasty official serving Amenemhet II (1929-1892 B.C.). He was titled the "Chief of Works" for the royal court and was a royal scribe. He also appears to have held administrative duties in the king's own harem. His mortuary stela, which is now in the British Museum, gives an account of his life.
