Two of # 450, # 451, # 641/B.14, and/or # 643/B.16 were from the tomb -49- and its environs (Redford 2006: 158).
Remarks:
The ascribed owner is identical to that of # 450, # 451, # 610, # 641/B.14, and # 643/B.16. However, # 451 and # 641/B.14 may be the same cone. See the 'Image Gallery' section of both cones.
Regarding the sequence of cone production, it is worth noting that # 450 was the first cone produced, followed by the others. Further details can be found in the 'Remarks' section of # 450.
According to Lichtheim, Ibi is most likely the forerunner of TT 279 Pabasa, who possessed cones # 92, # 468, and # 469 (Lichtheim 1948 [JNES (7(3))]: 165). Padihorresnet, Ibi's son and owner of cones # 515 and # 609, then succeeded Pabasa (Vittmann 1977 [SAK 5]: 254). The Ankhhor from TT 414 followed Padihorresnet, but he did not possess any cones as the tomb's upper structure was likely never completed (Vivó 2022: 323). Next, Sheshonq, who owned # 444 and # 445 in TT 27, succeeded Ankhhor. Sheshonq's father, Horsaaset, owned # 436 and # 437. It is likely that Sheshonq was the father-in-law of Padineith, the owner of # 391 and TT 197 (Vittmann 1978: 134-138).
