Her Titles included 'Consort of the Two Ladies' and 'Foremost of Women' Not much is known of her life, though some believe her wedding is portrayed upon the Narmer Macehead though there is no corroborative evidence to agree with this. In addition her name is found within a serekh (crossed with two arrow instead of Horus) and from this it is thought she may have outlived Narmer and was buried by her son with others taking it as evidence she ruled on behalf of her infant son. She is attributed as far as Helwan from a label. She is known to have been buried in the Royal Tomb at Naqada with her tomb originally being thought to have belonged to Menes. Chamber C of her tomb is known for three obsidian bowls discovered there. This tomb also revealed an ebony label with Hor-Aha's Nebti name of 'Men' which was why the tomb was thought originally to be that of Menes..
