One of many officials of Thebes of the cult of the god Monthu, buried in New Kingdom tombs in the 25th and 26th Dynasties; or in vaults beneath the temple of Hatshepsut at Deir el-Bahri. Showing the outer and inner coffins, and the shabti-boxes. The mummy and other goods have not been traced and so a mummy from the same period and other grave goods are included to show what a complete collection would look like. Picture taken at the British Museum January 2007.
