He was married to his full sister
Isetemkheb D (both children of
Menkheperre, the
High Priest of Amun at Thebes, by Isetemkheb III, hence both nephew, niece and grandchildren of
Psusennes I and also to his niece
Nesikhons, the daughter of his brother
Smendes II. He succeeded Smendes II, who had a short rule. His children by
Isetemkheb D were: •
Psusennes II •
Herwebenkhet, a Chantress of Amun; buried at
Bab el-Gasus • (?)
Henuttawy, God's Wife of Amun By Neskhons he had four children: two sons, Tjanefer and Masaharta, and two daughters, Itawy and
Nesitanebetashru. When Pinedjem II died, his mummy, along with those of his wives and at least one daughter, Nesitanebetashru, were interred in the tomb
DB320 at
Deir el-Bahri, above the
Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut. Subsequently, the mummies of other previous
Theban-based rulers, including the much earlier
New Kingdom pharaohs
Ahmose I,
Amenhotep I,
Thutmose II,
Thutmose III,
Ramesses I,
Seti I,
Ramesses II, and
Ramesses IX were gathered together and also laid in this tomb, which was revealed in 1881. This was done to prevent their remains from being robbed as their graves have been looted by many ancient tomb raiders. ==Pinedjem's timeline==
