介绍（中）	在博物馆在底比斯墓（TT）252号附近挖掘时发现了几个天篷罐的碎片，包括一个零碎的人头盖，这是一个名叫Senimen的人的坟墓。塞尼门是图特摩斯二世统治时期的高级官员，哈特谢普苏特和图特摩斯三世联合统治期间，塞尼门是奈菲鲁尔公主、图特摩斯二世和哈特谢普苏特女儿的管家和家庭教师。古埃及天篷罐的目的是在木乃伊制作过程中固定和保护从死者体内取出的内脏。传统上，它们以四件一组出现，因为肝脏，肺，胃和肠都经过防腐处理并单独储存。这四个容器通常放在一个箱子里，放在墓室里。塞尼门的葬礼设备在他的坟墓外被发现，他的天篷设备的几块碎片无法确定地分配给特定的罐子。每个罐子可以与三个罐子中的一个（或多个）连接，这些罐子可以部分重组（<一个href="https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/844004">35.3.333b.1-.2，<一个href="https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/546761">35.3.333c和<一个href="https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/844005">35.3.333d），或者可能来自第四个罐子。在后一种情况下，它们可能含有塞尼门的胃，传统上由女神奈斯和荷鲁斯·杜阿穆特夫的儿子保护。
介绍（英）	Fragments of several canopic jars, including a fragmentary human-headed lid, were uncovered during the Museum's excavations in the vicinity of Theban tomb (TT) no. 252, the tomb of a man named Senimen. A high official during the reign of Thutmose II and the joint reign of Hatshepsut and Thutmose III, Senimen was the steward and tutor of Princess Neferure, Thutmose II and Hatshepsut’s daughter. The purpose of canopic jars in ancient Egypt was to hold and protect the viscera removed from the deceased’s body during the mummification process. They traditionally came in sets of four, as the liver, lungs, stomach and intestines were embalmed and stored individually. The four containers were usually put inside a chest and placed in the tomb chamber. Senimen’s funerary equipment was found in pieces outside his tomb, and several fragments of his canopic equipment cannot be assigned with certainty to a particular jar. Each may join with one (or more) of the three jars that can be partially reconstituted (35.3.333b.1-.2, 35.3.333c and 35.3.333d), or may come from a fourth jar. In the latter case, they could then have contained the stomach of Senimen, traditionally protected by the goddess Neith and the Son of Horus Duamutef.
