Summary description: Outer anthropoid coffin (14–15), inner anthropoid coffin (16–17) and mummy-cover (18).
Archaeological context and dating: The coffin set was found in the main gallery of Bab el-Gasus1 next to the western wall. The scheme of decoration detected on the inner coffin relates to the first half of the 21st Dynasty, while the outer coffin displays late features. Nothing can be said about the remaining objects that were included in this burial assemblage nor about the identity of the owner.2
Name and titles of the owner: The equipment of this coffin set presents abundant traces of usurpation. The outer lid shows male features and the name of Ankhefekhonsu (its first owner) is outlined in red on the case (Inscription 1). Nevertheless, the inner coffin, much older than the outer coffin, shows female features. The mummy-cover was originally crafted for a man, but female features were added (namely earrings and open hands). In the inscriptions of the mummy-cover the name Ankhesenmut is written.
In the scheme proposed by Niwiński (1988, pp. 196–197 Table I), A.60 seems to have been superimposed on the coffin A.59. Daressy on the other hand (1900, p. 147), indicates that A.60 lay below A.59. Our plan of the tomb follows Daressy notes. Material evidence seems to corroborate this reading: A.60 is a coffin set, while A.59 is a single inner coffin (see Niwiński 1988, p. 110 n. 36) that could have never supported such a weight. The bad state of preservation of the outer coffin from A.60 can also be explained in this way.
Aston 2009, p. 174 n. TG 733. The attribution of inscribed linen and part of a jersey is derived from Porter and Moss (see PM I,2 p. 637) but this is probably a misunderstanding and the quoted clothes are probably no other than the ‘campioni delle stoffe rinvenute a Deir el Bahri insieme alle Mummie dei faraoni’ asked by Schiaparelli and arrived in Florence at the same time than Lot V.
