Findspots:

• Five from K93.11 and A. 8 (Kruck 2012: 91).

Remarks: 

• Tomb A. 8 is likely the same as the tomb -136- numbered by Kampp (Kiser-Go 2006: 244-245).

• The ascribed owner is identical to that of # 532, # 554, and # 701/B.74.

• The dimensions, design, findspots, textual content and inscription style of # 532 and # 554 suggest that the maker of the two is the same and that they were created at the same time. However, the order of production of these two with the other two (# 667/DAN I and # 701/B.74) is unclear. It is possible that # 667/DAN I was also produced by the same individual as that of # 532 and # 554.

• The Hermitage Museum preserves a statue group of Amunemheb (Piotrovsky, Landa, and Lapis 1974: No. 51).

• This cone was first published in Kruck 2012: 91-92, Taf. 2 b).
