Abstract
Translation of the texts on the door-jambs Cambridge Fitzwilliam E.5.1909 and Brooklyn 56.152.They come from a tomb of the Saite Period reused in the Thirtieth Dynasty.The new user, a secretary of Nectanebo I, addresses the old owner, a palace official under Amasis, and Claims to have done him a great favour by restoring and reusing his tomb.In his response, the old owner declares himself to have acted as a mediator and assures his 'benefactor', and the king who allowed the transfer, of the goodwill of the gods.Particularly remarkable is the presence of a type of personal 'guardian angels' (spsivt) in the texts and decoration.1909 fand W.
