Two cartouches also bear his name. The animal head probably represents the god Seth as the uas was found in a temple dedicated to him. The arms are broken off at the elbows but their acute angle suggests that they might originally have held a standard or have been raised in adoration.

The bodies are marked with black and reddish colours. The two divine serpents, creations of religious syncretism of the Graeco-Roman Period, often decorate stelae, coins and the walls of tombs.</span></span></div>

“Woman at the window” or “the lady of the window” is one of the most
famous scenes in Phoenician ivory carving. The plaque shows a woman who
looks out of a window, thought to be a sacred prostitute linked to the
goddess Astarte or Ishtar. However, the exact significance of the scene
is still unknown. Neo-Assyrian period, 9th-7th centuries BCE. From
Nimrud, Mesopotamia, Iraq. The Sulaimaniyah Museum, Iraq.</div>

The tomb of Renni, numbered EK 7, is of great interest, not only in the setting of the site at El Kab, but more extensively because it is one of the rare Egyptian tombs which dates from the reign of Amenhotep I. From a decorative view point, one feels here the influence of the end of the Middle Kingdom, the cannon of the New Kingdom not yet being completely in place.<br />
