Meru (overseer of sealers)

Meru was an Ancient Egyptian official under king Mentuhotep II in the Eleventh Dynasty, around 2000 BC.

Meru was overseer of sealers at the royal court and therefore one of the highest state officials.

The tomb consists of the undecorated cult chapel and the underground burial chamber decorated with Pyramid Texts and Coffin Texts.

[1] There is a sarcophagus sunk into the floor decorated with friezes of objects and an offering list.

Meru appears finally in two rock inscriptions in the Shatt er-Rigal.
