The procession of Asiatics in the tomb of Khnumhotep II (No. 3) at Beni Hassan is one of the most famous scenes alluding to ancient Egypt's interactions with its neighbors. Khnumhotep II, however, was not the only official at Beni Hassan to include representations of foreigners. The tomb of his possible grandfather, Khnumhotep I (No. 14), additionally features unique depictions of a number of individuals who can be identified as of non-Egyptian origin. These foreigners signal that particular cross-cultural relations could remain under the auspices of specific families in the early Middle Kingdom, perhaps influencing power and political dynamics that helped shape the 12th Dynasty. The following presents the most recent recordings of the depictions as completed by The Australian Centre for Egyptology, commenting on their nature and historical significance in relation to Khnumhotep I and the Oryx nome.

“…También es interesante remarcar la importancia de las mujeres sobre la piedad doméstica. Conocemos la existencia de mujeres videntes de Deir el-Medina, así como la preponderancia de las divinidades femeninas vinculadas al culto doméstico (Robins, 1996;Ritner, 2008). Además, el trabajo doméstico quizá, como centro de producción de bienes para el trueque, era un medio de ingresos familiares.…”

“…The Late Bronze Age crisis of funerary security went so deep that even royal tombs in the Valley of the Kings (the tombs of Amenhotep III and Ramses II, among others) were systematically looted, probably by the very men in charge of the Theban region at the time-the High Priests of Amen-who ostensibly used the riches to fund their political regimes (Reeves 1990;Ritner 2009;Taylor 1992Taylor , 2010. Even some Nineteenth Dynasty royal tomb goods made their way into Twenty-First dynasty kings' tombs at Tanis.…”

“…We do know that the makeup of the Theban high elite began to change in Dynasty 22, when King Sheshonq I at Tanis appointed his own son as the High Priest of Amen at Thebes, interrupting the patrilineal hereditary succession that had been the norm for the Amen priesthood during Dynasty 21 (Ritner 2009). The introduction of new elite players into the Theban landscape may have demanded new social innovations with regard to funerary behaviors.…”
