Meryra

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Egyptian noble Meryra (also Merire) was the only certain High Priest of the Aten, amongst his other titles were Hereditary Noble and High Official and Fan-bearer on the Right Side of the King[1], which emphasise his closeness to the king.[2]

He had a tomb constructed at Amarna, Tomb 4, although his remains have never been identified.
