Hieroglyphic transcription

Comments

The name Hathoremhat (meaning Hathor is at the fore) is a relatively uncommon female name, attested in only a few sources. We find it, for example, in the Zagreb Museum, on the funerary figurine of Neit-em..., whose mother is Hathoremhat; the determinative used for her name is the figure of a woman (Gardiner sign B1) 2. Another reference appears on the Serapeum stela IM4118, currently kept in the Louvre Museum. The stela belongs to Pasherienptah, whose mother bore the name Hathoremhat. A third reference is found in the Walters Art Museum, on the relief of Anjefensejmet (inv. 22.38), depicted together with his wife, also named Hathoremhat 3. All three references date to the Late Period and seem to fall around the 26th Dynasty. To date, we have not identified any parallel for this ushabti.
