"Amenemhat III aries as Sobek, the son of Neith. Eats with his mouth, urinates, copulates with his phallus. He is lord of seed, he who takes the women from their husbands, wherever Amenemhat wants, according to the desire of his heart."
―Inscription on a statue of Sobek in his tomb[src]

Amenemhat III also Amenemhet III and Ammenemes (died 1814 BCE), was a pharaoh of the Twelfth Dynasty of Egypt and reigned during the Middle Kingdom period. A son of Senusret III, Amenemhat III succeeded his father to the throne and reigned for about four decades before being succeeded by Amenemhat IV. His reign is considered a high note of the Middle Kingdom.

During his reign, Amenemhat III comissioned several pyramids, one of which located in Hauris Nome south of Faiyum would eventually serve as his tomb.
