The Theban Tomb TT131 is located in Sheikh Abd el-Qurna, part of the Theban Necropolis, on the west bank of the Nile, opposite to Luxor.
The tomb belongs to a 18th dynasty Ancient Egyptian named Useramen who was a Vizier during the reigns of Hatshepsut and Thutmosis III.[1] The aged Vizier Amethu (User's father) is shown with a chamberlain, courtiers and User as a scribe before Tuthmosis III, and a text records the installation of User as co-vizier.[2]
