This grandiorite statue depicts a kneeling statue of Montuemhat holding a stela; it was made in either the Twenty-fifth or Twenty-sixth Dynasty, about 670-650 BC. It was probably from Montuemhat's tomb at Thebes. The stela held up by Montuemhat shows him offering to Atum-Khepri, one of the many forms of the Sun God. The text is a hymn to the setting sun, taken from Spell 15 of the Book of the Dead. The text on the back pillar is an appeal to the local god of the owner to protect him. This statue and a similar one in Cairo were almost certainly set up in Montuembat's tomb.   This object is part of "Scan The World".
