This statue is one of the objects found in the tomb. It is 40cm high, and depicts a kneeling man hol-ding a stele. When categorizing this object, we see that it belongs to the stelophor type, which is based on a religious context that unites the concepts of statue, stele and false door. In this article we intend to analyze the statue of Nakht from the perspective of the Material Engagement Theory, proposed by Lambros Malafouris, elucidating its position in the tomb, its form and its text. Thus, we will develop an idea of what this object could symbolize within Egyptian belief. La estatua de Nakht estaba ubicada en un nicho propio en la cámara interior de la tumba de un escriba y astrónomo del dios Amón, situada en el occidente de Tebas, actual Luxor. Esta estatua es uno de los objetos encontrados en la tumba y medía 40 cm de alto, con un hombre arrodillado sosteniendo una estela. Al categorizar este objeto, vemos que pertenece al tipo ste-lophor, el cual se basa en un contexto religioso que une los conceptos de estatua, estela y puerta falsa. En este artículo pretendemos analizar la estatua de Nakht desde la Teoría del Compromiso Material, propuesta por Lambros Malafouris, esclareciendo su posición en la tumba, su forma y el texto, para que podamos construir una idea de lo que el objeto podría simbolizar dentro de la creencia egipcia. A estátua de Nakht estava localizada em um nicho próprio na câmara interna da tumba de um escriba e astrônomo do deus Âmon, situada na margem ocidental de Tebas, atual Luxor. Essa estátua é um dos objetos encontrados na tumba, tinha 40cm de altura, com um homem ajoelhado segurando uma estela. Ao categorizarmos esse objeto, vemos que ele pertence ao tipo stelophor, que é baseado em uma conjuntura religiosa que une as concepções de estátua, estela e porta falsa. Nesse artigo temos o intuito de analisar a estátua de Nakht a partir da Teoria do Engajamento Material, proposta por Lambros Malafouris, elucidando a sua posição na tumba, a sua forma e o texto, de modo que possamos construir uma ideia do que esse objeto podia simbolizar dentro da crença egípcia.
