Horemheb, while still an official, receives the "gold of the reward". The uraeus on his forehead was added later, after his coronation.

The Memphite Tomb of Horemheb is located in the Saqqara necropolis, near Memphis, Egypt.[1] It was constructed before Horemheb ascended to the throne and was never used for his burial, since he later built the Theban tomb KV57 for this purpose. His two wives Mutnedjmet and Amenia were buried within the structure.

The tomb was discovered by art robbers at the beginning of the 19th century. Looted reliefs were acquired by a number of European and American museums. The tomb's location was then lost, it was relocated in 1975 and excavated in 1979.
