Nodjmet | Noble | 1064 BC | 20th/21st | Female | Unknown | ||
Padihershef | Stone mason | 7th century BC | 25th | Male | Before 1823 | — | Padihershef originates from Thebes and died between 20 and 30 years old. One side of his body shows signs that decomposition started before mummification took place. He bore a title conventionally translated as "stone mason" but he was likely a "sepulchral prospector" who looked for areas to cut new tombs in the Theban necropolis. Padihershef was the first complete Egyptian mummy imported into the United States. He was presented by Jacob van Lennep to Massachusetts General Hospital in 1823 and was investigated by John Collins Warren the same year. He was X-rayed in the 1930s and 1970s and CT scanned in 2013. This revealed that his unwrapped head was reattached with the aid of a stick.[27][28] |
Pinedjem II | High Priest of Amun | 969 BC | 21st | Male | 1881 | ||
Qar | Royal physician | Unknown | 6th | Male | 2006 | — | |

Sha-Amun-en-su lived during the 22nd dynasty, and was a priestess as well as a temple singer. Her mummy was destroyed in 2018 from a large-scale fire in the National Museum of Brazil, where her mummy had been on display. | |
Shep-en-Isis | 620-610 BC | 26th | Female | 1819 | |||
Souser-iret-binet | 850-557 BC | Female | 1880s | Souser-iret-binet[30] likely originates from Gaston Maspero's excavations in the mid-1880s at Akhmim, Upper Egypt. She was known as Ta-sedgemet but the partial name "Souser" appears on inscriptions on her coffin.[31] She was at 27–35 years old at death and unwell. She had non-Hodgkin lymphoma and enlarged sinuses suggesting a flu-like illness, in addition to poor dental health. She was obtained for the Canterbury Museum, Christchurch along with another mummy, Tash-pen-Khonsu, in 1888; in 1957 she was transferred to the Auckland War Memorial Museum in Auckland where her mummy is on display.[32][33] | |||
Tabasety | Priestess | 1301-1035 BC | 20th-21st Dynasty | Female | Before 1940s | Tabasety was a Theban priestess who bore the titles "chantress of Amun" and "lady of the house". Based on the style of her coffin set, she lived during the Twentieth or Twenty-first Dynasties. She fractured her pelvis as a child. The injury never fully healed, which would have caused chronic, disabling pain. She died aged 40-60 years. Her organs were not removed during mummification and her body is largely skeletonised. In the 1940s, her body and coffin were purchased by Ivan Lystager and donated to Aarhus University in Aarhus, Denmark in 1950.[34] | |
Takabuti | Lady of the house | 25th | Female | Before 1835 | The mummy and coffin of Takabuti have been housed in the Ulster Museum in Belfast, Northern Ireland since at least 1835, when she was unwrapped. She died in her late 20s, likely from a stab wound.[35] | ||
Ta-Kr-Hb | Priestess | 760-525 BC | 25-26th | Female | Before 1896 | — | |
Tash pen Khonsu | Priestess | c.185 BC | Ptolemaic | Female | Tash pen Khonsu's mummy was purchased in 1887 from Frederick George Hilton Price for the Canterbury Museum, Christchurch. She came from Akhmim, Upper Egypt and was involved in the cult of Amun. She died aged about 25. She appears to have been placed in a recycled coffin, as textile from the coffin lining was dated to 485 BC – a discrepancy of 300 years.[36] | ||
Tayesmutengebtiu | Chantress of Amun | c.900 BC | 22nd Dynasty | Female | 1850s-1880s | — | Tayesmutengebtiu, also known as Tamut, was a priestess of Amun. Based on the wear on her teeth she was at least 30 years old at the time of her death and has an estimated height of 157 centimetres (5.15 ft). CT-scanning has revealed her mummy has artificial eyes of stone or glass and is equipped with many amulets, including a heart scarab, two embalming plates, wax figures of the four sons of Horus, and sheet metal amulets placed over the throat, chest, pelvis, wrists, and feet; her finger and toes are covered with metal stalls. She was probably buried at Thebes and was discovered between the 1850s and the 1880s in excavations by either Raymond Sabatier, Auguste Mariette, or V. G. Maunier and was purchased by the British Museum in 1890.[37] |
Tayuheret | Singer of Amun | Unknown | 21st | Female | 1881 | ||
Tchaenhotep | 1069-664 BC | 3rd Intermediate Period | Female | 1903 | — | ||
Thuya | Noble | Unknown | 18th | Female | 1905 | ||
Tjayasetimu | Temple singer | c.800 BC | 22nd | Female | Before 1887 | — | Tjayasetimu was a "singer of the interior" likely of the god Amun; such singers were often daughters of the elite. CT-scanning has revealed she died around the age of seven and has shoulder length hair arranged on the sides and back of her head. Her mummified body was placed in a decorated cartonnage coffin depicting her as an adult woman. Dark liquid was poured over the entire front of the coffin which obscured much of the decoration; cleaning carried out in 1975 allowed the inscription to be read. Her mummy was purchased by E. A. Wallis Budge in 1887 for the British Museum. He assumed she originated from Thebes, the home of the largest temple to Amun, Karnak, but John H. Taylor and Daniel Antoine suggest she may be from El Hiba in northern Egypt.[38] |
Usermontu | Noble | 400 BC | 26th | Male | 1971 | ||
Usai | Official | 664-525 BC | 26th | Male | Unknown | The mummy of Usai is exhibited at the Archaeological Civic Museum (MCA) of Bologna along with Usai's outer box-shaped coffin and inner anthropoid coffin. X-ray analysis revealed the presence of a further faience bead net under the wrapping, as well as an envelope between the legs containing the viscera removed during the mummification.[39] | |
Wah | Estate manager | c.1975 BC | 12th | Male | 1920 | The mummy of Wah was discovered in a 1920 dig organized by the Metropolitan Museum of Art in Manhattan. The mummy was displayed for years before X-ray analysis revealed a number of small objects of value within the wrapping.[40][41] The outer layer of the body's linen wrappings were dyed red and inscribed with protective words.[42][43] | |
