Kings during 1905/1906 shows a more complete state of it.* The lower right and the upper left edges were lost somewhere between its discovery and its acquisition by the museum. Schulman, Malek and Peden assign the stele to Nakhtamun,** however, in the photograph the name of the owner is more visible and does not support their assumption, but makes Parenakht a potential candidate for the ownership. Peden suggests that Parenakht also appears on the ostracon CG 25311 together with Amenkhau and Atumnakht, without any title, however, there is no indication of his presence in the text. Parenakht is designated as wdpw nswt ‘royal wdpw’ on all of his remains, which in the cases of the ostracon and the papyrus coincides, and in the case of the stele assumes his participation in a particular mission ordered by the ruler.’ His only other functional title is s§ nswt ‘royal scribe’, which appears on his stele.

Unfortunately, the inscription gives only the 2" year as a date of the visit, but not the name of the ruler himself. According to Dorn, Ramesses V, Ramesses VI and Ramesses VII might be the candidates, most likely Ramesses VI or Ramesses VII.” As for the name of Nebmaatreper-?, Dorn notes that all the recognizable elements of °8 Reeves, 1984, 234, pl. 34c. 844 Schulman, 1986, 201; Malek, 1988, 135; Peden, 1994b, 60. * Peden, 1994b, 59. The only possible explanation for Peden’s assumption is that he misread the last word of the ostracon p3 hr [...] ‘the tomb [...]’ as P3-r‘[...].
