Takelot I - Tomb
Evidence that the Royal Tanite tomb belonged to Takelot I was suggested long ago by the presence of grave goods found within the burial which mentioned his known parents: namely a Gold Bracelet and Alabaster Jar of Osorkon I, and a Ushabti figure of Queen Tashedkhons. In addition, a heart scarab found in the king's burial gave his name simply as "Takelot Meryamun" without the Si-Ese epithet used by Takelot II. Recent confirmation of this circumstantial evidence was published by Karl Jansen-Winkeln in 1987, whose examination of several written inscriptions on the tomb's walls proved beyond doubt that the person buried here could only be Takelot I, Osorkon II's father.
Osorkon II arranged for this aforementioned inscription to be carved on the Tomb Walls:
"[Made?] by the King of the South & North Egypt, Lord of Both Lands, Usimare Setepenamun, Son of Re, Lord of Crowns, Osorkon II Meryamun, [to furbish] the Osiris (ie: deceased) King Takelot Meryamun in his Mansion which is [an abode] of the Sun-disc: I have caused him to rest in this Mansion in the vicinity of 'Hidden-of Name' (Amun), according to the doing by a son of benefactions for his father, [to] furbish the one who has made his fortune in conformity with that Horus Son-of-Isis, commanded for his father, Wennufer." Above the inscription was carved the cartouche of Osorkon II and the text: "A Son, furbishing the one who created (ie: begot) him." (English translation of Jansen-Winkeln's paper by Kenneth Kitchen)
This Text shows that Osorkon II honoured his father by burying or reburying him in the Tanite royal tomb complex. Takelot I's final resting place, forms the third chamber of Osorkon II's tomb: ie: Osorkon II interred his father within the walls of his own tomb. Takelot I was buried in a Middle Kingdom sarcophagus which was usurped, and inscribed with his own cartouche.
