"The discovery of this sarcophagus in its original place in the burial shaft was very exciting because it is the sarcophagus of the owner of the tomb... sometimes the sarcophagus is for a different person of a later period, when the tomb was used in later periods. But this time it is not the case"

"The sarcophagus is inscribed with emblems of deities, including the sky goddess Nut on the lid, covering the chest with opened wings to protect the deceased"

"The scenes still preserved on the walls of the statue room and on blocks buried in the sand depict various rather unusual events, related to Iwrkhy’s military career and foreign relations with neighbouring countries, such as an image of boats unloading Canaanite wine jars"

"Archaeologists believe that further excavation of the sanctuary and shaft will confirm the conclusions they have drawn from preliminary work at the site."
