Tumba de Perneb

Old Kingdom

Saqqara, al norte de la pirámide escalonada

On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 100

Perneb era un funcionario de la corte que presidía las ceremonias en las que el faraón era vestido y coronado. La superestructura de su tumba comprendía una cámara para ofrendas decorada con pinturas, a la que se accedía desde un patio a través de un vestíbulo. Dentro de la cámara, una puerta estilizada en forma de nicho (denominada falsa puerta) era un lugar de contacto simbólico con el difunto. El Metropolitan posee no solo la cámara para ofrendas decorada sino también el patio y un conjunto secundario de cámaras para las estatuas de Perneb, edificaciones que forman el complejo funerario más completo conservado en la colección de un museo.
