Cowroid Inscribed with the Throne Name of Thutmose II ca. 1492-1479 B.C. New Kingdom This cowrie-shaped amulet is inscribed on the base with the name, Aakheperenre. this is the throne name of Hatshepsut's husband, Thutmose II. It was found inside a khol jar which had been placed in the coffin of an unnamed woman that was in the tomb of Hatnefer (see 36.3.1). Five other cowroids were found in the kohl pot including two with the same inscription as this one. It is likely that the woman died during reign of this king and that the kohl jar and cowroids were part of her original burial equipment. Three of the other amulets are in the Museum's collection (26.3.20, .23, .24) and two are in the Egyptian Museum, Cairo. A number of other objects had also been placed in the coffin including two mirrors (36.3.12, .13), three faience bowls (36.3.8-.10), a circular wood box (36.3.11a, b)..
