In 1857, a tomb was discovered by A. H. Rhind on the Sheikh ‘Abd el-Qurna hill, containing rifled mummies, coffins and fourteen labels inscribed in hieratic. The latter, now in Edinburgh, together with two further examples bought on the antiquities market, but now lost, named a series of Eighteenth Dynasty princesses. The labels are to be dated to the Twenty-first Dynasty, the deposit being assessed as a communal reburial made in Year 27 of Psusennes I
