Daressy #: 137
Owner: Neferhotep (tomb undiscovered, perhaps at Qurna)
Reasons: --
Transliteration: Hm-ntr 4 nw n jmn nfr-Htp mAa-xrw, Hmt=f nbt pr jmn-Htp
Translation: Fourth prophet of Amun Neferhotep justified, his wife, mistress of the house Amunhotep.
Date: T. I - Hat (Neferhotep is seen in a wall of TT 345 as an elder brother of the owner of the tomb, which is dated T. I - Hat. (Lepsius 1849 - 1859 [LD Taf. III]: 9; Sethe 1906 [Urk IV: II]: 106). Auenmüller dates, however, to the reign of T. III for unknown reason (Auenmüller 2013: 941).
Length: 14.2 digits (NMS: A.1950.158), 14.4 digits (Pellegrini 1902: 146).
Colours: The core is dark and the exterior is covered with bright red pigment wash (Teeter et al. 2003: 177). Dark red coat (NpM: P 2002. Suková 2004: 94.).
Findspots:
One from outside TT 48 (01-154 in Davies's notebook).
One stored in TT 161 (? Illigible. 01-154 in Davies's notebook).
Unknown examples from Qurna and Khokhah (Mond 1905 [ASAE 6]: 94-95).
Unknown examples from TT 103 (Davies speculated that Copts had relocated to there, as stated in Davies 1913a: 30-31. One of them may be the one currently preserved in the Metropolitan Museum of art, 15.10.44).
One from the shaft in the court of TT 68 (Seyfried 1991: 93).
One from Medinet Habu (Teeter et al. 2003: 177).
Alongside # 302, many from TT 46 (Redford 2010: 368).
Remarks:
The ascribed owners are identical with those of # 301 and # 302.
I propose that Neferhotep had # 301 initially, followed by # 359, and ultimately # 302. My reasoning is that # 301 solely references Neferhotep, while in # 359, his wife's name is added to the margins (likely due to marriage). Furthermore, in # 302, the cones were remade with a tidy and neatly organised inscription.
