Mnevis

[2] The Mnevis bull was entitled to two concubines, more precisely two cows representing Hathor and Iusaaset.

When the bull died, he was embalmed and buried with all honours in a dedicated necropolis which was located not far from the temple at Heliopolis.

[2] Another burial ground was reserved for the so-called Mothers of Mnevis, which were considered the embodiment of the cow-goddess Hesat.

[2] The cult of Mnevis was among the very few to be tolerated during the "Amarna heresy" of King Akhenaten, probably because of its solar attributes.

It is known that Akhenaten ordered the construction of a necropolis for Mnevis bulls in Akhetaten, although it has not yet been found.
