| Sumario: | This work brings together interpretations made from the analysis of different figurative compositions that are part of the wall decoration of the tomb of Amenmose, who bore the title of Worker of Amun in the Necropolis during the reigns of Hatshepsut and Thutmose III. The decorative programme introduces iconographic and stylistic aspects typical of the mid-18th Dynasty. What is more, the iconographic and textual motifs are linked to regeneration and offerings which reinforce the worldview related to the afterlife. Epigraphic studies of Theban tombs have limited the analysis to scene themes such as fishing and fowling, agriculture, banqueting, worship of divinities and burial rituals among others. This publication aims to show the links and interrelation of figurative compositions of the tomb of Amenmose in a narrative manner and takes into consideration the semantic dialogue between the figures. The information collected during the 2020 and 2022 work seasons of the Argentinean Mission in the Tomb of Amenmose (TT318), Luxor, Egypt constitutes our empirical support. |
