Quppen (transliteration: qwppn) was an ancient Egyptian Crown Prince of the Fifteenth Dynasty during the Second Intermediate Period. As such, he was of Canaanite origin.

Attestation[]

Quppen is known from 11 scarab-seals bearing his name. Some of them attest him with the title "King's Eldest Son" (sꜢ-nsw smsw). Based on their stylistic features, the scarab-seals were produced during the reign of Khyan or more likely Yaqub-Har.[1] Furthermore, Yanassi (another King's Eldest Son) is associated with Khyan on a stela, leaving Quppen more likely to be associated with Yaqub-Har.[1]
