Picture of the Day Bock Statue of Hor, Son of Ankhkhonsu
Material: Schist
This type of statue is normally referred to as a block statue because of the general shape that it takes. It was discovered, together with literally thousands of others, buried in the temple of Amun-Re at Karnak.
Hor was a priest of Montu, and his genealogy is carved on this statue. From this, we learn that his family had been associated with priestly functions at Thebes for at least five generations.
