Altägyptisch Uschebti für den Prinzen Hor-Nakht, Sohn des Pharaos Osorkon II
Extremely rare shabti of the Prince Hor-Nakht.
Prince Hor-Nakht was a son of Pharao Osorkon II, who ruled Egypt from Tanis in the 22nd Dynasty.
Osorkon II tried to control the entire country so he appointed his son Hor-Nakht as High Priest of
Amun of Thebes. Unfortunately, Hor-Nakht died already at the age of nine. He was buried in the
same tomb as his father in the royal necropolis in Tanis (Hor-Nakht was placed in the same Chamber
as his father Osorkon II). Circa 365 shabtis were originally found by Pierre Montet, who discovered
the royal necropolis in 1939. Around 160 pieces are supposed to be in private collections or museums
outside of Cairo, although some sources claim only 22 in European collections.
