military campaign of the king launched against Karoy in Nubia, and he declares that his rising in the official and, obviously at the same time, the social hierarchy was due to the favour of the king. The continuation of his career under the reign of Amenhotep II is clear from the next part; after a subtle reference to the death of Thutmose II] and the ascension of Amenhotep II, Montuiui proudly announces that he was placed among the courtiers of the king and was promoted among his officials as all the offices of the palace had been placed under his authority, which supposedly means that he might have been appointed to jmj-r3 jp.t nswt ‘overseer of the royal apartments’ .** The distinguished position of Montuiui in the royal court and among the officials, to which he himself referred, is also represented by the three ranking titles he bore: jrj-p“ ‘member of the elite’, htmtj-bjtj ‘royal sealer’, smr-w‘4j ‘sole friend’. Besides, further honorific titles such as mnh n nb=f ‘excellent of his lord’ and hsjj n nir nfr ‘favoured of the good god’ demonstrate his close relationship with the king. Unfortunately, there is no information on his family background, except the name of his mother, Hapu, however, it might be supposed that he had come from the upper classes of society, based on his being ‘child of the kap’. Due to this fact, together with his abilities, he rose ever higher in the official hierarchy, becoming one of the most prominent persons in the royal administration and household. III,8.
