Note

Nefertiabet was an ancient Egyptian princess of the 4th dynasty. She was possibly a daughter of Pharaoh Khufu. Her tomb at Giza is known (G 1225) and the mastaba is about 24.25M by 11.05M. A statue of her, now in Munich, probably originates from her tomb. She is best known from her beautiful slab stela, now in the Louvre. Nefertiabet is shown seated facing to the right. She is depicted with a Long wig and a panther skin garment.Her right hand is extended to a table that is piled with bRead. Under the table, offerings are depicted, including linen and ointment on the left and offerings of bRead, beer, oryx, and bull on the right. On the right of the slab a linen list isalso depicted. Her tomb originally contained one shaft which contained the burial of Nefertiabet. The shaft contains a Passage and a chamber. Fragments of a white limeStone coffin with a flat lid were found. A canopic pit had been dug in one of the corners ofthe chamber. The chamber contained some bowls and jars. An annex with one additional burial shaft was added later, but was completely pLundered. |
