Sarcophagus of Wahibreemakhet
Although the hieroglyphic inscription on this large sarcophagus identifies the deceased as Wahibreemakhet, a high official who held the title of Royal Sealer around 600 BC, and was buried in the manner of an important Egyptian court official, the names of his parents, Alexikles and Zenodote, are Greek. Wahibreemakhet was likely born in Egypt to immigrant parents.
