Djedptahjuefankh: 3rd Prophet of Amun, Thebes, 21st  (21a?) - 22nd Dynasty:
remains of burial in usurped 21a Dynasty coffins found in the "Royal Cache" TT320
(DB320) dated Year 11 (934 BCE) of king Sheschonq I, founder of the 22nd Tanite
Dynasty. The location of the original burial is not known, but it was most certainly
not TT320. In contrast to the use of usurped coffins, his mummy is said to be the
highest quality of mummification known.
