  Neferhotep I came from a military family. His grandfather Nehy held the title ‘officer of a town regiment’. Nehy was married to a woman called Senebtysy. Nothing is known about her, other than that she held the common title ‘lady of the house’. Their only known son was a person called Haankhef. He appears in the sources always as ‘god’s father’, who was married to a certain Kemi. These are the parents of Neferhotep I.
  Reigned eleven years until his death. 1751-1740 BC
  His successor was his brother Sobekhotep IV (1740-1730 BC), who is known in Egyptology as Sobekhotep IV and who is perhaps the most important ruler of the Thirteenth Dynasty.
