Army Officials
Horemheb: Executive (Iry'pat), Generalissimo. During Tutankhamen's reign Horemheb was most likely married to Amenia, a chantress of Amen. Horemheb's tomb in Saqqara (Memphis) is an important source of information. The tomb was built during the reign of Tutankhamen and Aye. Upon becoming Pharaoh himself, a uraeus was added to the brow of most of his images.
Nakhtmin generalissimo under Tutankhamen. Likely the son of Aye. Nakhtmin contributed five ushabtis to the grave goods of Tutankhamen.
Paramesse: General under Tutankhamen. Would later serve as Vizier under Horemheb, and would ultimately take the throne as Ramesses I.
Penniut, deputy commander of Wawat. From a stela. He's also depicted in Viceroy Huy's tomb.
Commento:
Il comandante dell’esercito durante il regno di Akhenaton doveva quindi essere May.
Fra i personaggi importanti che compaiono a corte, secondo il sito, non compare Horemheb (Horus è in festa).
Alcuni Egittologi hanno ipotizzato che il futuro faraone si chiamasse in realtà Paatenemheb (L’aton è in festa) e che abbia cambiato nome o ripreso il nome di nascita alla fine del regno del faraone eretico o durante il regno di Tutankhamon.
Durante il regno di Tut compare la figura del nuovo generale Nakhtmin, un probabile figlio di Ay.
Sappiamo che durante il regno di Ay Nakhtmin divenne generale in capo dell’esercito e principe ereditario, facendo le scarpe a Horemheb.
Nakhtmin però mori all’improvviso (?????) lasciando strada libera a Horemheb, il quale però dovette legittimare l’incoronazione sposando una figlia di Ay.
