Djehutyemhat,,also can be spelled as Thotemhat, or Thutemhat, was an ancient Egyptian ruler ("king") of Hermopolis during the 25th Dynasty.

==Biography== Like his probable predecessor Nimlot, he proclaimed himself king, adopting the full royal titulary although he was no more than a governor of Hermopolis and a vassal of the Kushite 25th Dynasty. His cartouches appear carved on the shoulders of a damaged block statue depicting the priest Tjanhesret, found in Luxor in 1909 and now in the Cairo Museum (CG 42212), and on a bronze naos-shaped amulet of Amun-Ra of unknown provenance – possibly from Thebes – and now in the British Museum (EA11015). The only known depiction of the king is found on a votive scribal pallet now in the collection of the Egypt Centre of Swansea University.
