description A corpus of funerary linen was found in the 2012/2013 season in one of the rock tombscut in the cliff bordering the Tuthmosis III temple platform in Deir el-Bahari during the work ofthe Polish–Egyptian Archaeological and Conservation Mission of the Temple of Hatshepsut atDeir el-Bahari. It derives from unidentified burials and from disturbed archaeological contexts andmost probably was deposited in the tomb in modern times. It constitutes an important additionto the known body of funerary linen from the Third Intermediate/beginning of the Late Period,as attested by a cartouche of Taharqo and other elements of the burial assemblages. The discoveredtextiles provide important information about the funerary functions of linen, as well as technicalaspects of Pharaonic textiles.
