介绍（中）	在第25王朝的一部分和第26王朝早期，门图埃姆哈特是底比斯的实际统治者，同时也是上帝的妻子。他在阿萨西夫建造了一座大型陵墓，第25王朝晚期和第26王朝的其他主要人物也是如此，其他大多数人都与上帝的妻子有密切联系。他的巨大陵墓有时被称为宫殿陵墓。它的东端有一个带拱门的大型砖砌塔柱。实际的入口是从一个大门和塔门以西一个巨大的下沉式露天庭院东北角的下降入口。接下来是第二个较小的开放式球场。地下的房间和走廊从这些庭院中分出，向下的走廊继续向西延伸到房间套房和墓室。尽管部分房间和墓室早已为人所知，但这座巨大的建筑直到最近才被完全清理干净，陵墓仍在研究中虽然石头很差，墓中浮雕装饰的墙壁也受到了很大的影响，但这一浮雕令人信服地被分配给了从第一个下沉宫廷西侧通向第二个下沉宫廷的西门廊。这是目前已知的唯一一个出现浮雕的地区，而北墙似乎与葬礼游行和葬礼期间的活动有关，已被证明是这场屠牛现场的所在地。
介绍（英）	Mentuemhat was the virtual ruler of Thebes alongside the concurrent God's Wife during part of Dynasty 25 and early 26. He constructed a large tomb in the Asasif, as did other major figures of late Dynasty 25 and Dynasty 26, most of the others closely associated with the God's Wife. His huge tomb is sometimes referred to as a palace tomb. It is marked at its eastern end by a large brick pylon with an arch. The actual entry is from a gate and descending entry at the northeast corner of a huge sunken open court west of the pylon. A second smaller open court follows. Subterranean rooms and corridors branch off these courts, and descending corridors continue further west to suites of rooms and the burial chamber, Although parts have long been known, this huge edifice has only been recently completely cleared, and the tomb remains under study. While the stone is poor and the walls of relief decoration in the tomb have greatly suffered, this relief has convincingly assigned to the west portico which opens from the west side of the first sunken court and leads to the second. This is the only area known to have raised relief at this point, and the north wall, which seems to have been concerned with the funeral procession and activities during the funeral, has been shown to be the location for this cattle slaughtering scene.
