Amenmose, Son of Pendjerty (sometimes named Amenmessu) was a royal scribe from the time of Ramesses II. Amenmose was the son of the judge Pendjerty and the sistrum bearer of Amun, Mut and Khonsu, named Mutemonet. [1]
A statue now in the British museum indicates that Amenmose's father Pendjerty was from Iwny (modern Esna).

His mother's name is given as Mutemonet, and her name is shortened to Inty and Iny on different monuments.
- Iny as written on the Manchester Museum statue [2]
- Name recorded in TT 373 [3]
Several of the monuments Amenmose left behind show the goddess Neith in a place of prominence, which may be a reference to the birthplace of his father. Neith was worshipped in Esna. [1] In his tomb in Thebes Amenmose is said to be not only a scribe, but also the Head of the Temples. This may indicate that he inspected temples. Hibachi mentions that this may explain why his monuments were found in so many different locations. [1]
