SFSU Global Museum-105.1,2 - Nespaperennub

sketchfab

This is the outer coffin of a 22nd dynasty priest of Amun named Nespaperennub. Nespaperennub worked as a priest at the temple of Karnak in Thebes. Originally, the middle coffin (SFSU 106.1,2), cartonnage (SFSU 107.1) and Nespaperennub himself would have fit inside this coffin in the fashion of a russian doll. Nespaperennub and his coffins were purchased by Adolf Sutro in Egypt in the early 1880s and were displayed at the Sutro Baths for over half a century. Happily, they were transferred to San Francisco State University before the Baths burnt to the ground in 1966.
