Djedi was an Egyptian prince who lived during 4th dynasty. He was a son of Prince Rahotep and Nofret, grandson of pharaoh Sneferu and nephew of pharaoh Khufu. He had two brothers and three sisters.[1]

In an ancient Engyptian tale, Khufu and the Magicians, mention is made of a magician called Djedi or Dedi, and it is possible that this mythical person was inspired by the real prince Djedi, Khufu's nephew.[2]
