Reliefs from the Tomb of Nespekashuty 656–610 B.C. Late Period, Saite After a lapse of some three centuries in the construction of decorated tombs at Thebes, high officials of the late 25th dynasty and the 26th dynasty again built elaborate tombs in Thebes, and decorated them with fine limestone reliefs. Earlier Middle Kingdom and New Kingdom temples and tombs at Thebes offered subject matter and inflected their style. One of these impressive projects was the tomb of Nespekashuty, the vizier installed in Thebes by Psamtik I after the removal of the Kushite Dynasty by the Assyrians. First excavated by the MMA in the 1920s, recent re-clearance and conservation of the tomb have allowed a thorough study, which is forthcoming.The vizier Nespekashuty took over the terrace of a prominent Middle Kingdom Dynasty 11 tomb cut into the north cliff at Deir el-Bahri near the Dynasty 11 temple of Mentuhotep II and the Dynasty 18 temple of Hatshepsut (see 23.3.174a). The poor stone of the cliffside was carved out to create Nespekashuty's tomb chambers and then blocks of fine dense limestone were used to line the tomb. These casing blocks eventually became brittle from fire and mostly collapsed from the walls, leaving the tomb in the crumbled state in which it was found. The decorationThe displayed reliefs are from the west wall of Nespekashuty's tomb; along with others from this wall in the Brooklyn Museum, they focus on his funeral. In the lowest register male and female offering bearers advance to the right and these have considerable similarities to offering bearers from Hatshepsut's Temple at Deir el-Bahri. In the second register from left to right, the barge bearing Nespekashuty's coffin and the officiating mortuary priest clad in a leopard skin is being towed across the river to the necropolis on the West Bank, preceded by boats holding gesticulating mourners. The scene is particularly influenced by 18th dynasty tombs, but is also very close in some respects to the parallel
