Inside the coffin lid of Ameneminet (Imeneminet)
flickr
[The white interior of a coffin lid, mostly illustrated in black ink. Two goddesses stand on either side of the pole of the Abydos reliquary, supporting it. Hieroglyphs run down the pole. Between each goddess and the pole is a ram on a standard, held up by an ankh with arms (left) and a was sceptre with arms (right). The base of the pole is protected by winged mummiform lions. Above each goddess Wepwawet stands on his shedshed symbol.]
What a great, complex diagram; despite the dearth of colour Ameneminet got his money's worth. These goddesses aren't labelled, but it would make sense if they were Isis and Nephthys.

// Dal had five siblings, and he named the tines of the ring after each of them so he could feel like they were together again. Ru, Titi, Nemi, Mutmut and Re.Two older sisters, one older brother, one little sister, one little brother (in order). He was the fourth born. Two of his siblings (Titi and Re) died before the event of the night of natural causes, so it helps him to have all six of them together again even though he’s the only one left alive.

Although he lived during the Ramesside Period (19th & 20th Dynasties) Ameneminet was employed in the temple of Amenhotep III (18th Dyn) and his tomb (TT 277) features lots of images of the long-dead king & his wife Tiye e.g. as here statues of the pair being dragged into position. In another scene Ameneminet pours a libation and offers incense to the founder of the Middle Kingdom, Mentuhotep Nebhepetre and Queen Nefersys while cow-goddess Hathor emerges from the mountain behind them. She’s always doing that.

Seahorse on the coffin of Ameneminet (Imeneminet)
flickr
From the coffin of Ameneminet. I glanced at an article in French about these "seahorses" on coffins -- I'll have to take another look.

This is a detail of the coffin lid of Ameneminet. The Two Ladies, Nekhbet and Wadjet, appear twice as crowned ureai on this coffin lid (Nekhbet wears the white crown, Wadjet the red crown).
