Wadjmose was an ancient Egyptian prince of the 18th Dynasty; a son of Pharaoh Thutmose I. [1]
He is likely to have been born a few years before his father ascended the throne. He had a brother named Amenmose; it is disputed who their mother was. If they were born to Queen Ahmose, they were full brothers of Hatshepsut and Nefrubity. [1] On the other hand, Wadjmose may have been the son of Queen Mutnofret and thus a full brother of Thutmose II. [2]
Wadjmose is depicted in the El Kab tomb of himself and Amenmose's tutor Paheri , as sitting on Paheri's lap. He is thought to have predeceased his father. [1] Wadjmose and another prince named Ramose were mentioned in the Theban funerary chapel of Thutmose I where Queen Mutnofret is also included. [2] This chapel may have been erected during the reign of Thutmose II between the places where later the mortuary temple of Thutmose IV and the Ramesseum were built. A statue of Mutnofret was found here, making it likely that she was his mother. [1]
Wadjmose's name occurs written in a cartouche, which is quite rare for princes. [3]
