The Memphite Tomb of Ḥoremḥeb, Commander-in-chief of Tutʻankhamūn: Human skeletal remains

Book excerpt: The human remains found in the Memphite tomb of Horemheb include 305 individuals which come from three contexts. The original late Eighteenth Dynasty burials from the subterranean system of Shaft IV include the remains of Horemheb's queen, Mutnodjmet, and Professor Strouhal's examination of her skeleton provides important new information on her life and death. The tomb also contained later burials, of the Ramesside Period and the Late Period. All the remains are comprehensively analysed and discussed.
