Cheri-cheped-seret

Cheri-cheped-seret is the name of an ancient Egyptian dean who only contained a dean star and belonged to the ancient Egyptian constellation Sheep , which is depicted in many coffins on the diagonal star clocks and, for example, in the tomb of Senenmut .

The most striking star here is Sadalmelik in the constellation Aquarius .

In the dean lists of the Sethos scripture , Cheri-cheped-seret represented the 21st dean on the body of the groove . The heliacal ascent was scheduled for the 26th Achet III and had as a dating basis the decree under Sesostris III. ( 12th Dynasty ) in his seventh year of reign.
