The Granite Sarcophagus of Dwarf Djeho.
30th Dynasty. Saqqara, Egypt.
Egyptian Museum Caïro.
Djeho shared a tomb with his master Tjaiharpta, which indicates the favored position he had with his patron.
Djeho is depicted naked in profile, possibly life-sized (4 ft or 120 cm).
It was found by Quibell in 1911.
On the sarcophagus’ lid, the biography tells us that Djeho was a dancer in burial ceremonies connected to the Apis and Memphis bulls.
