Ahmose-sa-Neith
Ahmose-sa-Neith (Ahmose, son of Neith ) was a high ancient Egyptian official who served under King Amasis (570 BC to 526 BC). He carried various important titles, including "chief of the anteroom", "head of the royal fleet" and "head of the royal guard". His parents are named Wahibre and a certain Taperet on a statue in the Egyptian Museum in Cairo . Ahmose-sa-Neith is known for numerous monuments that underscore its importance. Among them are four statues, his sarcophagus , an imprint of a seal and two door posts, which date to the 30th Dynasty and thus prove that he enjoyed special veneration even after his death. His son Chnumibre is also mentioned here , who was to make a career above all under Persian rule .
