Djedi

Djedi was an Egyptian prince who lived during the 4th dynasty of Egypt. He was a son of Prince Rahotep and Nofret and had two brothers and three sisters. He is depicted in the tomb chapels of his parents and has the title of "King's Acquaintance".

In an ancient Egyptian tale, "Khufu and the Magicians", mention a magician called Djedi or Dedi, and it is possible that this person called Dedi was inspired by the real prince Djedi, Khufu's nephew.
