Remarks:
EMC likely possesses a statue of our Nakht (Legrain 1908: 47-48), which suggests that Nakht may have been active during the reigns of Thutmose I and Hatshepsut.
This museum also has a stela belonging to Nakht. According to the inscription (CG 34048. Lacau 1909: 82-84), Nakht's parents were Kemis and Sebeknakht, and his wife was named Senhotep. Kemis, who was the owner of # 207, is also mentioned (Kees 1960 [ZAS 85]: 45). The family is also represented by a stela in the MMA collection (Inv. # 17.2.6, Hayes 1990: 172-173, Fig. 94). See Habachi 1968 for an overview of this family's genealogy. According to Dewachter's theory (Dewachter 1984 [RdE 35]: 86-87), Kemis is believed to be the same person as TT 398 Kamose, also known as Nentawaeref, whose cones were # 13, # 118 and # 119. It is worth noting that the seal's inscription of # 13 is entirely distinct from both # 118 and # 119. Furthermore, # 13 examples have been discovered much farther away from TT 398. I think it is not too late to regard this Kemis to be identical to that Kamose after further evidence, such as the discovery of multiple examples around TT 398, will occur.
