outer wall
The façade is not perpendicular to the hall of the tomb, which turns to the right. The decoration of the façade is executed in fine sunken relief. The upper part of the jambs as well as the lower part of the lintel are badly damaged. Both jambs are decorated with the representation of Ah-mes Pen-Nekhbet before an offering table with a long inscription above. The west part of the lintel is almost completely missing, only a fragment of its east end is preserved, where Ah-mes Pen-Nekhbet with his brother adoring Anubis and most probably Osiris are shown. The details of the figure of Pen-Nekhbet represented there are not finished.
