Abstract

This article studies the unpublished block statuette JE 37434 displayed at the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. It was found by Legrain at Karnak Cachette in 1904. It portrays the priest of Montu, Ankhpakhered, who most probably lived in the late 25th – early 26th dynasties. He served as the head of the metalworkers at the temple of Amun in Thebes. He was among the Theban priestly families, whose presumable members were recognized through the occurrence of his name and titles on their funerary furniture.
