Remarks:

The ascribed owner is identical with that of # 454.
The dimensions, design, and handwriting of # 284 and # 454 suggest that the maker of each may have been different. # 284 mentions only the owner Nanay, while # 454 also mentions his wife. This could mean that the latter was made after their marriage. If so, Nanay's funerary cones, of cource also his tomb, were made well before his death, even before his marriage.
Bruyère maintained that Pit 1138 serves as a burial site for Amunwahsu (the owner of # 453) and Nanay (Bruyère 1929: 16-17).
According to Stele N. 50010 from Deir el-Medina, held by the Egyptian Museum in Turin, Amunwahsu may have been the owner of item # 453 and the son of Nanay and Neferetiry (Tosi and Roccati 1972: 43-44). It's also possible that a relief fragment in the British Museum (EA 281) belonged to Nanay. El Shazly identifies stela EA 360 as likely belonging to Nanay (El Shazly 2015: 416-419). Nanay and his family are referred to as 'Nakhy (iii)' in Davies 1999: 64, 66-67, and Chart 8.
