Head of Nefertem

The Head of Nefertem (also known as the Head from the Lotus Bloom or Tutankhamun as the Sun God) was found in the tomb of Tutankhamun (KV62) in the Valley of the Kings in West Thebes. It depicts the King (Pharaoh) as a child and dates from the 18th dynasty (New Kingdom). The object received the find number of 8 and today is displayed with the inventory number JE 60723 in the Egyptian Museum in Cairo.
== Discovery ==
The discovery of the Head of Nefertem is controversial, since Howard Carter did not document the piece in his excavation journal. The Head was found in 1924 by Pierre Lacau and Rex Engelbach in KV4 (the tomb of Ramses XI), which was used as a storehouse, among the bottles in a box of red wine.〔Thomas Hoving: ''Tutankhamun: The Untold Story.'' pp. 318–324.〕 At this time, Carter was not in Egypt on account of the strike and closure of Tutankhamun's tomb and the withdrawal or cancellation of the excavation license of Lord Carnarvon's widow Lady Almina. Carter later stated that he had found the head among the rubble in the entry corridor of KV62.〔Zahi Hawass: ''King Tutankhamun. The Treasures Of The Tomb.'' p. 16.〕 In his first season of excavations, the head was not mentioned; at the time Carter only noted partially broken and full-standing alabaster vessels and vases of painted clay in the entrance-way. There is not even photographic documentation of the head in the excavation journal as there is for other pieces found in the tomb.〔Griffith Institute, Oxford,(''Howard Carter's diaries and journals. Part 1: October 28 to December 31, 1922. The first excavation season in the tomb of Tutankhamun.'' 25 and 26 November 1922 )〕 These facts not only led to further disputes in the study of Egyptian antiquities, but also aroused the suspicion in some quarters to this day that Carter had attempted to steal the head.〔Andreas Austilat, ''(''Archäologie: Retter oder Räuber?'' ) In ''Tagesspiegel'' 22 January 2010.〕
