The Theban Tomb TT93 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 an 18th Dynasty ancient Egyptian named Qenamun, who was the overseer of the cattle of Amun and chief steward of Amenhotep II. More than eighty epiteths of Qenamun were found in the tomb. Qenamun's mother, Amenemipet, was a wet nurse of Amenhotep II, which effectively made Qenamun a foster brother to the young prince that would become king.
