Among the precious artifacts in the royal tomb of Psusennes the First at Tanis, a bronze brazier, or oven, belonging to Ramesses the Second was found.
It might have been an important object deposited in a palace or a temple in the vicinity of Tanis, or at Thebes. It was taken to Tanis as a sacred artifact of Ramesses the Second, and as a token of veneration and respect for that great king.
The written text is a dedication by Ramesses the Second to the temple gods on the occasion of one of his jubilees. |
