Pareherwenemef (“Re is with his left arm”) was an ancient Egyptian prince of the 20th Dynasty, a son of pharaoh Ramesses III. Just like several of his brothers, he was named after a son of Ramesses II, whom Ramesses III tried to emulate (see Pareherwenemef). He is depicted in his father's mortuary temple at Medinet Habu.[1] Both he and his brother Khaemwaset are called firstborn sons of the king; they were possibly the firstborns of different wives.[2] He was buried in QV42.[1]
