Publisher Description: This book presents the painted decoration of the Theban tomb chapel TT176, belonging to the 'servant of Amun' Userhat. Userhat dates to the mid 18th Dynasty and was a lower official at the Amun's temple at Thebes. His chapel belongs to the smallest examples of its kind still decorated with paintings, some of them of highest quality. The decoration is today much destroyed but the publication includes older photographic images and drawings by Schott and Davies. |
