Translation: Scribe of the nome, overseer of the fields of Montu, Amunhotep.
Date: --
Length: --
Colours: White over the red face and 2.0 digits of the stem (01-116 in Davies's notebook).
Findspots:
Unknown examples from Qurna and/or Khokhah (Mond 1905 [ASAE 6]: 92, 95).
One from the 'Mond's magazine (= inner hall of TT 96. See Mond 1904 [ASAE 5]: 100)' and Davies took it to make a facsimile (01-116 in Davies's notebook and 04-037 in Macadam's Green file). The example(s) may have been the ones mentioned in Mond's ASAE article.
Remarks:
The three cones owned by Amunhotep bear almost entirely different titles from each other, which may explain why he wanted three distinct cones.
The design and handwriting on all three suggest that they were most likely made by the same person and (therefore) at around the same time.
The statue EA 32182 preserved in the British Museum most likely belonged to our Amunhotep. It bears an inscription that reads, 'Scribe of the district, Overseer of the two granaries, Overseer of the fields, with text mentioning Montu lord of Hermonthis' (PM VIII: 614) or, according to Budge, 'an overseer of the royal granaries and estates' (Budge 1922: 130 [83]).
