The Treasurer (or often also translated as Chancellor) in Ancient Egypt is the modern translation of the title ''imi-r ḫtmt'' (word by word: ''Overseer of the Seal'' or ''Overseer of sealed things''). The office is known since the end of the Old Kingdom, where people with this title appear sporadically in the organization of private estates. In the Middle Kingdom the office became one of the most important ones at the royal court. At the end of the 18th Dynasty the title lost its importance, although the famous Bay had this office. In the later New Kingdom the function of a treasurer was overtaken by the ''overseer of the treasury''. The treasurer was responsible for products coming to the royal palace. They were the main economic administrator of the royal belongings. Famous title holders include: == Middle Kingdom == *Bebi, was later appointed vizier, under Mentuhotep II *Kheti, under Mentuhotep II *Meketre, under Mentuhotep II and after *Ipi, under Amenemhet I *Rehuerdjersen, under Amenemhet I or later *Sobekhotep, under Senusret I, year 22 *Mentuhotep, under Senusret I *Merykau, under Amenemhat I *Siese, under Amenemhat I *Senankh, under Senusret III *Sobekemhat was later appointed vizier, under Senusret III *Iykhernofret, under Senusret III *Senebsumai, Thirteenth Dynasty *Senebi, Thirteenth Dynasty *Amenhotep, Thirteenth Dynasty 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「Treasurer (Ancient Egypt)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
