priest, Djed


  • As a priest, Djed (for short) served the warlike falcon-god Montu, the original patron god at Thebes. Djed’s elaborately painted triple coffin was found buried in the hallowed ground of the temple at Deir el-Bahri built by Queen Hatshepsut some 700 years earlier.
  • Pictured is the spectacular coffin lid of Djeddjehutyiuefankh, now in the Ashmolean Museum, University of Oxford
