Elkab: cemetery, tomb of Ah-mes Pen-Nekhbet, doorway

The doorway consists of two parts, the outer, narrower and slightly protruding part which constitutes the inner element of the door frame and the inner one, deep, with a flat ceiling. It was decorated on both sides, the door frame was carved in sunken relief, the inner walls of the doorway were executed in raised relief with inscriptions carved in sunken relief. The decoration, especially of the door frame, is in very bad condition and only lower scenes can be observed. Middle parts of the inner thicknesses are almost completely missing now, they were much better preserved in 1890s when J.J. Tylor worked there preparing his drawings.^[1] The decoration on both inner sides of the door frame is similar and represents a garden scene. The surface of the west inner thickness is divided into two registers, in the upper one Ah-mes Pen-Nekhbet with his brother and son bringing offerings to the offering table with biographical inscription above are shown, in the lower register Amen-hetep Hapu with his family entering the tomb are carved. The east inner thickness has similar arrangement of scenes, in the upper register Amen-hetep Hapu with his parents leaving the tomb with a long inscription above are represented, in the lower register Amen-hetep Hapu with his family leaving the tomb can be seen.
