Nefer-Setekh

Nefer-Setekh (also written Nefersetekh) is the name of an ancient Egyptian high official, who lived and worked either during the late midst of the 2nd[1] or during the beginning of the 3rd dynasty.

This stela depicts Nefer-Setekh as a deceased sitting in front of an offering table, dressed in a very tight gown.

At the right side of the offering table the stele depicts and describes sacrificial food such as poultry, onions, lettuce and bread.

Furthermore, the stela contains a list in tabular form, it provides the enumeration and description of precious clothes and fabrics such as canvas and yarn.

This leads Egyptologists such as Toby Wilkinson[1] and Christiana Köhler[3] to a datation of Nefer-Setekh's lifetime into the late midst of the 2nd dynasty, when the deity Seth experienced special popularity.
