Four triads were found in the Valley Temple of Menkaure, grandson of Khufu, at Giza. Originally, there were probably eight of these, each representing the king with goddess Hathor and a deity of one of the administrative areas (nomes) where this goddess had a major cult area. This triad represents the king with goddess Hathor and the patron deity of the Bat nome (located in Middle Egypt).
4th dynasty, from Giza.
