Note 29 — II. THE BIRTH AND EARLY YEARS OF AKHNATON.

This tomb of Horemheb seems to have been begun and finished in the early years of Akhnaton’s reign, to have been left alone during the remainder of the reign, and to have received the addition of doorposts (see note on p. 265) after the death of Akhnaton. Fragments of the tomb are now divided between Leiden, Bologna, Vienna, Alexandria, and Cairo; and it would seem that all except those in the Cairo museum (the doorposts) are from the earlier period. The titles on the Cairo fragments are far more elaborate than those on the others. See Breasted, Records, iii. 1 ff.
