Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Shrine found in KV55. The text on the shrine states that it was made by Akhenaten for his mother Tiye. With one exception, the names of Akhenaten were erased and in some places were replaced by those of Amenhotep III (the father of Akhenaten) in ink. Akhenaten's figure in the middle was also hacked off, though the figure of Tiye survived. Some of the panels of the shrine have since disappeared, while the surviving ones are currently located in the Cairo Museum.
