In Ancient Egypt, Gebu was a high official with the title high steward and royal sealer during the late Twelfth or early Thirteenth dynasty of the late Middle Kingdom.

Attestation

Gebu is only known from one statue.

At Thebes, a grandorite statue of Gebu sitting with crossed-legs was found in the Temple of Amun at Karnak. Inscriptions show that the statue was a gift from an unnamed king and dedicated to the god Amun. The stylistic features put it to the late Twelfth Dynasty or early Thirteenth Dynasty.
