Userhet

The ancient Egyptian noble Userhet was buried in the Valley of the Kings, in tomb KV45. He probably lived during the rule of Thutmose IV. Amongst his titles was Overseer of the Fields of Amun.[1] He presumably received the honour of a burial in the royal necropolis because of his rank. A mural of Thutmose I's statue being pulled on a sled was found in KV45.
