At Deir el-Medina, tomb chapels were topped with small mud-brick pyramids, finished with a carved stone capstone, or pyramidion. Its faces usually show the owner worshiping the sun god, linking the tomb with the daily rebirth of the sun.
This pyramidion belonged to Ramose, a royal scribe at Deir el-Medina during the reign of Ramesses II, who was one of the most prominent and well-documented members of the village community and built several monuments there.
