Padiiset's Statue or Pateese's Statue,〔(Lemche ), p.54〕 also described as the Statue of a vizier usurped by Padiiset, is a basalt statue found in 1894 in the Egyptian delta which includes an inscription referring to trade between Canaan and Ancient Egypt during the Third Intermediate Period.〔(Statue of a vizier usurped by Padiiset, at the Walters Art Museum )〕〔(The Statuette of an Egyptian Commissioner in Syria, Georg Steindorff, The Journal of Egyptian Archaeology, Vol. 25, No. 1 (Jun., 1939), pp. 30-33 )〕〔(The Philistines in Transition: A History from Ca. 1000-730 B.C.E., Carl S. Ehrlich, p65 )〕 It was purchased by Henry Walters in 1928, and is now in the Walters Art Museum. It is the last known Egyptian reference to Canaan, coming more than 300 years after the preceding known inscription. The statue is made of black basalt and measures 30.5 x 10.25 x 11.5 cm, and was created in the Middle Kingdom period to commemorate a government vizier. Scholars believe that a millennium later the original inscription was erased and replaced with inscriptions on the front and back representing "Pa-di-iset, son of Apy" and worshipping the gods Osiris, Horus, and Isis.〔Helmut Brandl, Untersuchungen zur steinernen Privatplastik der Dritten Zwischenzeit: Typologie - Ikonographie -Stilistik, mbv-publishers, Berlin 2008, pp. 218-219, pls. 122, 180b, 186a (doc.
