Nebmaatre (“The Lord of the Truth is Re”) was an ancient Egyptian prince and High Priest of Re in Heliopolis during the 20th Dynasty. He is likely to have been a son of Ramesses IX since they are mentioned together on a door lintel in a Heliopolis temple. He was a brother to Prince Mentuherkhepeshef; another possible brother is Pharaoh Ramesses X.
