It is the burial place of the Ancient Egyptian official, Tjay or Thay called To who was a royal scribe of the dispatches of the Lord of the Two Lands, during the 19th Dynasty. Thay served during the reign of Merenptah. Thay was the son of the scribe of soldiers Khaemteri and Tamy. Two wives are mentioned in TT23. Thay is shown with a wife named Raya, who was chief of the harem of Sobek and another wife who is called Nebettawy.〔 Within the tomb there is an image of a scene showing the tomb owner being rewarded while before Merenptah.〔Lise Manniche - (Lost Ramessid and Post-Ramessid Private Tombs in the Theban Necropolis ) ''Volume 33 of Carsten Niebuhr Institute publications'', Museum Tusculanum Press 1 Jan 2011, 112 pages, ISBN 8763505347 (2015-07-11 )〕 ==See also== * N. de Garis Davies, Nina and Norman de Garis Davies, Egyptologists * List of ancient Egyptian scribes 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「TT23」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
