Inetkaes (left) at the feet of King Djoser (limestone relief from Heliopolis)

Inetkaes , also Ini-net-ka-es , was an ancient Egyptian princess of the 3rd Dynasty . She was the daughter of King ( Pharaoh ) Djoser and Queen Hetephernebti .

Inetkaes appears on several reliefs from Heliopolis and Saqqara , almost always accompanied by the king mother Nimaathapi or her mother Hetephernebti and always at the feet of King Djoser on the occasion of the Sedfest (Hebsed).

The exact position of her grave is not yet known, but it is likely to be one of the shaft graves under the step pyramid of Djoser .
