Face from Middle Coffin of Pakherenkhonsu
Third Intermediate Period
Debris from the burial of the Doorkeeper of the House of Amun, Pakherenkhonsu, was found inside a pit dug into an earlier tomb in the Theban necropolis. Enough fragments of Pakherenkhonsu's equipment remained to show that he had been buried in a cartonnage case that was then placed within three nested anthropoid coffins of increasing size.
This face comes from the middle coffin. On the inside of the left side of the head of this coffin was a sketch of Pakherenkhonsu himself (28.3.52).
For the outer and inner coffins, see 28.3.49 and 28.3.51.
