TT177 Amenemopet

Here is the most interesting representation and the best preserved of the chamber. The deceased and his family's members are in front of the Hathor cow, which leaves of the mountain of the west. More precisely, it represents Hathor-Meresger, as the text specifies. Meresger, who appears most often as a snake, is the manifestation of the Theban Summit, the head of the necropolis and is more especially revered by the craftsmen of the village of Deir el-Medineh, those who produced the royal and princely tombs. It is maybe necessary to see here an indication connecting Amenemopet to the latter, because it is rarely mentioned in the tombs of the officials.
