The tomb-chapel of Hery (TT 12), dating to the early Eighteenth Dynasty, is decorated in relief. The banquet scene depicted on the corridor's south/west wall is an important document for the study of the Theban society of this period, but it was robbed and heavily damaged around the turn of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Fortunately, the scene and its inscriptions can be reconstructed using archival material created prior to the thefts. Spiegelberg's squeezes of 1895/6 can also be used to search for the stolen fragments
