Egyptian Funerary Cone for Djedher
Egyptian Funerary Cone for Djedher
Item Details
Description
1st millennium B.C. Columnar terracotta cone with flattened base, five horizontal bands of reserved hieroglyphic text giving the dedication: 'Djedher, true of voice, son of Ankhhor who is the son of the hereditary noble, great mayor, great one of the Meshwesh (an ancient Libyan tribe), mayor, overseer of the priests of Banebdju, Djedher, his mother, mistress of the house, Shepensepedet, true of voice.' Cf. Davies, N. de G. and Laming Macadam, F., A Corpus of Inscribed Egyptian Funerary Cones, Oxford, 1957, cone number 378. 895 grams, 16.5 cm (6 1/2 in.).

Acquired on the German art market, 1989-1995. with The Museum Gallery, 19 Bury Place, London, WC1, UK, 1998-2003. Property of a London based academic, 2003-present.

Funerary cones were used to decorate the facades of tombs. The 'tail' was pushed into the soft plaster coating so that only the disc was visible. This cone belongs to Djedher, whose tomb is likely to be in the Asasif region of the Theban necropolis, where other examples of his funerary cones have been found.
