Second Prophet of Amun

A donation stela from Karnak records how king Ahmose purchased the office of Second Prophet of Amun and endowed the position with land, goods and administrators.

[4] During the reign of Hatshepsut and Tuthmosis III, the Second Prophet was involved in royal constructions at Karnak.

In Puimre's tomb it is shown that he additionally was in charge of receiving goods from oases and tribute from Nubia, including captives.

[6] During the Twenty-fifth Dynasty of Egypt the Nubian rulers broke the hold of the local families on these priestly positions.

Shabaqo appointed Kelbasken as 4th prophet and later his son Haremakhet as High Priest of Amun.
