Ipi (vizier)

The tomb was found in the rocks of Deir el-Bahari overlooking the funerary complex of Mentuhotep II.

The corridor and chapel were found undecorated and only the burial chamber had painted decorations, religious texts and the titles and name of Ipi on its walls.

[1] The courtyard in front of Ipi's tomb comprised the burial of the servant Meseh, where the Heqanakht papyri were discovered.

In another chamber were found about sixty vessels and an embalming table, presumably for the mummy of Ipi.

[2] The datation of Ipi's lifetime is disputed, but he most likely lived during the early Twelfth Dynasty.
