Abstract

Work of the Archaeological Survey of Egypt at Gebel es-Silsilah has confirmed Legrain's suggestion that the Amenhotep shown adoring the cartouches of Amenophis III in a shrine on the east bank was ‘the overseer of the City and vizier’ of that king. The same officer must be the ‘Imn-ḥtp also shown adoring Amenophis Ill's cartouches on Legrain's Stela B, where the man's name is legible but his titles are not. It is possible that he was also represented in two more shrines at Silsilah East. In all these monuments his figure and identity docket were hacked out in antiquity for unknown reasons.
