Cattle brought for inspection: fragment of wall painting from the tomb of Nebamun (no. 5). Thebes, Egypt. 18th Dynasty, around 1350 BCE. The cattle are shown in two groups in two registers, and a record is made by scribes. In the upper register the herdsmen bow down before a scribe who is taking notes or counting the cattle. A herdsman stands in the middle of the lower register, holding a coil of rope in one hand, and raises the other. The section of painting to the left, where the figure of Nebamun would have been dominant, has not survived. 58.8 x 73 cm (max). Inv. 37976.
