In early 1859, the French Egyptologist Theodule Deveria was in Egypt to assist Auguste Mariette— who had just been appointed as Director of Antiquities—with copying texts at a number of sites in Egypt. At Saqqara, Deveria photographed a doorway of the now-lost tomb of Ptahemwia, the early Nineteenth Dynasty Great Overseer of Cattle and Overseer of the Treasury of the Ramesseum.
