Intef I, Intef II and Intef III were all buried in a saff (row) tomb in El Tarif in a row close to the Deir el-Bahri which is the location of the Mentuhotep II's Mortuary Temple.

Intef the Elder

Jürgen von Beckerath believes this stele was Intef's funerary stele, originally placed in a chapel near his tomb.

Intef may also be mentioned on a stele from Dendera, now in Strasburg, which further gives him the title of "Great prince of the southland".

Intef the Elder was also the object of private cults, as shown by the stele of Maat, now in New-York, a minor official of Mentuhotep II.
