Parennefer called Wennefer
Parennefer also called Wennefer was a High Priest of Amun during the reigns of Tutankhamun and Horemheb (and possibly later). He was previously thought to date to the time of Ramesses II, but he is now dated to the end of the Eighteenth Dynasty. Parennefer was more firmly put at the end of the Eighteenth Dynasty after extensive excavations of his tomb in Thebes in 1990–1993.
