She is depicted in the Karnak chapel Osiris-Nebankh (“Osiris, Lord of Life”). A bronze statue of hers, Statue of Karomama, the Divine Adoratrice of Amun (N 500), which she received from her overseer of the treasury Ahentefnakht, is now on display at the Louvre; a votive statue of Maat she also received from him, was found in Karnak, a stela of hers, her canopic jars and ushabtis are in Berlin. She was followed as God’s Wife by Shepenupet I. Her tomb was found in December 2014 in the area of the Ramesseum at Thebes.
