説明

In 2008, Waseda University Egyptian Expedition discovered a previously unknown New Kingdom tomb chapel on the summit of an outcrop at Northwest Saqqara where a monument of Khaemwaset, the fourth son of Ramesses II, is located. The tomb chapel presents a typical plan of Ramesside date. The upper portion of the structure was largely missing, leaving only the foundation and some of the flooring. N0 textual evidence to identify the owner has been found in the tomb chapel. <br> Excavations near the area to the west of the tomb chapel’s pyramid base exposed a shaft leading down to the burial chamber. In fact, the burial chamber is located under the base of the tomb chapel’s pyramid, indicating that it belongs to the tomb chapel. We discovered a sarcophagus in the burial chamber. Although the sarcophagus is of the usual Old Kingdom and Middle Kingdom form, the exterior decoration is of typical New Kingdom style, characteristic of the Ramesside Period.Excavations behind the tomb chapel also revealed a possible “embalming cache” of Isisnofret on the northern extension of the tomb chapel’s central axis, supporting the idea that the tomb chapel belongs to Isisnofret. <br> The owner of the sarcophagus is the “noble woman, Isisnofret.” A certain Isisnofret who has the title of špst and is mentioned as the daughter of Prince Merenptah appears in the Leiden Papyrus I 350 verso. Prince Khaemwaset too had a daughter named Isisnofret, although she is never described as špst on her attested monuments. The archaizing style of Isisnofret’s sarcophagus (which reflects the archaizing style of Khaemwaset’s own monuments) and the location of the tomb chapel of Isisnofret (orientated to the central axis line of the Khaemwaset monu ment—probably his ka-chapel) suggest strongly that the owner of the sarcophagus was Khaemwaset’s daughter.
