Amenemhat13th Dynasty
Amenemhat's title, 'Overseer of the Storeroom of the Chamber of
Fruits', does not sound especially elevated, particularly from a society
which devised many complex and orotund dignities for its officers.
Amenemhat honored one Beb, described as a prince, and refers to Henu, who
may have been Amenemhat's superior, on the funerary obelisk which he had
prepared for himself. The adoption of an obelisk by a private person at
this time was very unusual.
