"At the eastern edge of the Giza necropolis the Museum Expedition unearthed a group of four statues in one of the minor mastaba tombs. They are among the few non-royal statues found in the otherwise royal cemetery east of the Great Pyramid of Cheops. They had been thrown into one of the pits (see photograph). Two of the four pieces are exhibited here, the third is on display in the Cairo Museum, and the fourth is in Kansas City. Two statues represented Nefu, and two depicted his son Tjenty; both were accountants." (From info card)
One of Tjenty's statues can be seen to the right in this photo and in other photos.
