Reptynub is identified as the wife of Nyuserre based on the discovery of a fragment of a statue in his mortuary temple. A smaller pyramid next to that of Nyuserre likely belonged to his wife and the pyramid may have belonged to Reptynub.Dodson, Aidan and Hilton, Dyan. The Complete Royal Families of Ancient Egypt.

Fragments of a statue of a queen were found in the tomb of the vizier Ptahshepses and his wife, the king’s daughter Khamerernebty. No name was found on the statue fragments, but the statue is assumed to depict Reptynub.
