Karomama I

Karomama I was a Libyan queen and the wife of Osorkon II of Egypt's Twenty-second Dynasty.

Karomama was likely a daughter of Pharaoh Takelot I. She was one of three known wives of Osorkon II. The other wives being Isetemkheb G and Djedmutesankh IV.

Karomama was the mother of at least two sons and three daughters:

Osorkon II had many buildings raised during his reign, including a detailed monumental red granite hall in the 22nd year of his reign. Relief images of him and Queen Karomama decorate the walls. Queen Karomama (also known as Karomama B) was also a Royal daughter, but it is unclear which king was her father. As she is not titled Royal Sister, one can assume she was not Takelot I's daughter, but the lack of the title King's Sister is not conclusive. Other candidates are Shoshenq II or Harsiese. In the Jubilee reliefs, she is accompanied by her three daughters Tashakheper A, Karomama C and [Ta?]iirmer (Year 22).
