Gautseshen

Gautseshen (her name means 'bouquet of lotuses') was an ancient Egyptian priestess, the singer of Montu.

Her father was Menkheperre, High Priest of Amun; her mother was Princess Isetemkheb, a daughter of Pharaoh Psusennes I.

Gautseshen married Tjanefer, the Fourth, later Third Prophet of Amun.

The papyrus is a beautifully illustrated copy of the Book of the Dead, which shows the changes in funerary texts during the 21st dynasty, when the solar cult and that of Osiris gradually merged.

Another hymn, originally belonging to Osiris, was enriched with solar elements.
