The name of the "Daughter of the King" Inetkawes has been found on several boundary stelae found in the funerary complex of Netjerikhet at Saqqara and on a fragment of a relief from a chapel in Heliopolis, where other fragments dated to the reign of Netjerikhet have also been found.

On the fragmentary relief from Heliopolis, she is shown preceding queen Hetephernebti, who has been identified as Netjerikhet's wife based on the title "The One who may behold the Horus" that she bears on the Heliopolis fragment. The fact that Hetephernebti follows Inetkawes is not an indication that she was less important than Inetkawes, but rather that she protects the princess.

This suggests that Inetkawes was the daughter of Netjerikhet and his wife, queen Hetephernebti.

A third person is represented on the Heliopolis standing behind the king's leg, but the name and title of this person are missing.
