Petosiris

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Petosirs, called Ankhefenkhons, was the high priest of Thoth at Hermopolis and held various priestly degrees in the service of Sakhmet, Khnum, Amen-Re and Hathor. The son of Sishu and Nefer-renpet, he lived in the second half of the 4th century BCE under Persian rule. In his tomb inscriptions he prided himself on having restored the fortunes of the temples in which he served.
