Thebes Early 22nd Dynasty ca. 930 BCE

Djedptahjuefanch was a third                
Prophet of Amun-Ra and bore the         
title "King's Son of Ramesses". He       
lived at the end of the 21a Theban       
Dynasty and the beginning of the         
22nd "Libyan" Dynasty. He was              
buried   in Year 11 of the Tanite King   
Scheschonq I (934 BCE). His well          
preserved mummy shows an                 
attractive man in his mid-30s. His          
relationship with the High-Priests'        
family of the 21a Dynasty is a matter     
of  discussion.

Detail of poor workmanship              
shown on this primitively made        
object. In strong contrast to this      
is  the inscription, written in an        
elegant hand.
