Nasakhma was succeeded by Malewiebamani, who may have been his eldest son. It is possible that Talakhamani was a younger son of Nasakhma who took the throne after his brother Malewiebamani.[1] Another possibility is that Talakhamani is Malewiebamani's son[2] and thus possibly Nasakhma's grandson.
Nasakhma was buried at Nuri (Nu. 19).[1] The Boston Museum of Fine Arts holds several objects that may belong to Nasakhma: shabtis, vessel fragments, etc. excavated from his tomb.
