Gold Ring with Tutankhamun’s Prenomen
The ring bears the throne name of Tutankhamun (“Nebkheperure”), whose spectacular tomb in the Valley of the Kings was discovered in 1922. Tutankhamun was raised in Akhenaten’s court at Amarna, yet his reign saw the reversal of Akhenaten’s revolution, including the return of the court to Thebes.
The ring was found in an elaborate Canaanite tomb. It is unclear whether it arrived in Canaan during the reign of Tutankhamun (ca. 1332-1323 BC) or later.
Excavated in Tell el-Ajjul, Gaza. Now in the Rockefeller Archaeological Museum, Jerusalem. 33.708
