cknowledgements The present work ís a revised and supplemented version of my doctoral thesis that I defended in 2021. None of the works could have been completed without the help of several scholars and friends for whom I would like to express my gratitude here. Iam especially indebted to Dr. Tamas Bacs for his guidance as my supervisor during my PhD studies and for his help with the writing of this study. I would like to thank Dr. Barbara Egedi for her enormous help in clarifying the problematic issues in the inscriptions of the individuals, as well as Dr. Kata Jasper for her advice regarding the issues of funerary literature. I owe special thanks to all of my colleagues at the Institut fir Agyptologie und Koptologie of the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität, Munich, who hosted me several times and provided me with access to the library of the department. I am especially grateful to Maren Goecke-Bauer, Frauke Pumpenmeier and Dr. Alexander Schütze who have been of great help in making my work a success. I owe a debt of gratitude to the following scholars and institutions who provided me with photos and information on objects otherwise inaccessible to me: Dr. Johannes Auenmiiller, Dr. Susanne Binder, Dr. Robert Demarée, Prof. Andreas Dorn, Dr. Christian Loeben, Prof. Maarten Raven, Prof. Alain Zivie, the Musée Granet, and the Rijksmuseum van Oudheden.
