One from the well of TT 39 (01-259 in Davies's notebook).
Remarks:
It is unclear whether Iamunedjeh was the owner of TT 84 and subsequently # 34, # 281, and # 283. Proponents of this theory may argue that his name is too rare to find other Iamunedjehs and that the sS-nswt title held by Iamunedjeh from TT 84 (cf. Virey 1891: 340) is the same as the one on our cone. However, it should be noted that the cone has not been reported to have been found near TT 84.
The ownership of this cone may be determined by two slab stelae discovered in TT 84. Each stela has a crude hole at the centre, which Grothe suggested was for holding funerary cones. Although the shapes of the holes did not match the three types of cones (# 34, # 281, and # 283), there is a possibility that #548 was made to fit them. However, the full dimensions of the single known cone were not published (Loprieno-Gnirs 2021: 77-78).
