This work is the first full publication of the monumental granite naos of King Nekhthorheb (360-343 BC), originally 3.5m tall. The naos is an important source for late religious iconography and relief carving, as it bears extensive depictions of divine figures, arranged in registers, carved in exquisite detail on a small scale.
