The royal name Horemheb appears in a cartouche on the tenth pylon at Karnak, Egypt, where it forms part of a scene showing the king making an offering to Amun. His career began under the patronage of Tutankhamun with a rise from humble origins. He died without issue and was succeeded by his vizier, Paramesse, who adopted the royal title Ramesses I. The size of the ring indicates it probably served as a seal for applying official stamps. Signet rings of this type, which first appeared in the Middle Kingdom, were common during the New Kingdom.
