Horemkhauef

Horemkhaef was an ancient Egyptian local official who lived in the Second Intermediate Period.

Therefore, he was most likely the main priest at the local temple at Nekhen (known to the Greeks as Hierakonpolis), where Horus was worshipped.

[1] The stela reports the journey of Horemkhaef to Itjtawy, the Middle Kingdom capital.

[2][3] There he received in front of the king, a new cult image of Horus and his mother, most likely Isis.

The draughtsman Sedjemnetjeru, who most likely was the artist responsible for decorating the chapel, is depicted in the tomb.
