Pereniankh (c.2613 BCE) was a man who lived to be 45-50 years old during the 4th dynasty in ancient Egypt’s Old Kingdom. His mastaba style tomb is located in the Royal Necropolis of Giza, close to the Pyramids, and he was buried with both of his wives who based on skeletal and artistic evidence were both non-disabled. He is the only person with dwarfism from ancient Egypt for whom we have skeletal, artistic, and written evidence. The basalt statue depicts him seated wearing a white linen kilt and curled wig, holding a sekhem scepter and long staff. Pereniankh held the titles of administrator of the treasury, and royal acquaintance of the Great House, meaning he was also a member of the pharaoh’s court. He is speculated by some Egyptologists to have been Seneb’s father based on his tomb’s location.

A weathered statue of a crouching human. Long stands of hair are visible falling in the shoulders.
The ‘harpy’ from another angle showing the top half of a crouching body which is clearly animal shaped.
The ‘harpy’ side on, the back of its body shows a piece of masonry which may be wings or even part of a building, a door arch?
The Colchester sphinx. A similarly shaped statue to the statue in the previous photos, but in much better condition clearly showing a winged Greek style sphinx with a head between their front claws.
Roman-period statue of a ‘Harpy’ found in Driffield Terrace, York. To me, it (loosely) resembles the Colchester sphinx, which is believed to have been placed on a tomb. Both items may be evidence for a taste of Egyptian style art in Roman Britain. 🏺 #Egyptology #AncientBluesky

Pataikos was a version of the Egyptian god Ptah who was a person with dwarfism. In some versions of the myths he is alternately considered a son of Ptah. He was a protective deity who was typically depicted in amulet form as a nude dwarf person in a bow legged stance with a scarab on his head. He strangles various dangerous animals: snakes, scorpions, and stands on the backs of crocodiles: the amulets are meant to literally show him controlling chaos. Pataikos was frequently also depicted with the goddess of war, Sekhmet, and Nefertem, the god of the lotus. Pataikos was equated by the ancient Greeks to their god Hephaestus.

There is a 5th dynasty man from Dendereh who was found buried with a cane. He had his left leg two inches shorter than his right one, and the cane was deliberately placed next to him in his sarcophagus for use as a mobility aid. While he has traditionally been described as having polio, Egyptologist Aidan Dodson has recently put forward the theory that he might have cerebral palsy utilising the embodiment of his own lived experience of the disability as a source of expertise.

A Latin inscription carved on a gritstone tablet and painted with red text. The translation reads “To the holy god Serapis, Claudius Hieronymianus, legate of the Sixth Legion, Victorious, built this temple from the ground".
An inscription from a temple to Serapis in York, possibly built during the stay of the emperor Septimius Severus and family c.208-211 CE. The northern-most attested temple to an Egyptian god, the York temple may have also housed shrines to Isis, Harpocrates and Anubis. 🏺 #AncientBluesky #Egyptology
Khnumhotep (c.2350 BCE) was a man who lived during the 6th dynasty of ancient Egypt’s Old Kingdom. We have a surviving portrait statue whose inscriptions tell us his name and describe him as a dancer, overseer of the royal wardrobe, and overseer of ka-priests: the priests who performed daily rituals for the deceased. These titles reveal he was a respected essential part of the pharaoh’s court and was of elite status in ancient Egyptian society. The painted limestone statue depicts him smiling serenely, standing arms by his side wearing a white linen kilt which is knotted in the front. He is depicted as a person with dwarfism with a larger torso and short legs and arms. Khnumhotep is also described in the statue’s inscriptions as dancing at the funerals of two sacred bulls.

Hatshepsut (c. 1479 BCE) is perhaps one of the best known female pharaohs of ancient Egypt. She ushered in an age of economic growth, peace, and prosperity for Egypt under her rule after originally ruling as a regent for her stepson Thutmosis III when he was a child, before assuming the full title of pharaoh. She was typically depicted wearing male kingly regalia fitting of her position as pharaoh. She is believed to have had bone cancer, diabetes, and arthritis at the time of her death, based on examinations of remains that Egyptologists think are hers.

"[For] about 1,500 years... [Buto] was practically abandoned...
"That absence of occupation, possibly linked to changes in the course of the Nile, caused the oldest layers to become buried... making traditional research difficult."

Djeho (Djeder) (c. 346 BCE) was a man who lived during ancient Egypt’s Late Period. He was buried in Saqqara in an elaborate granite sarcophagus in his patron Tjaiharpta’s tomb. His presence in the tomb and the quality of the sarcophagus indicates his favored status with his patron. Djeho is depicted on the sarcophagus naked, with the proportions of dwarfism in a profile stance. Inscriptions on the sarcophagus’s lid reveal that he was a dancer who performed in funerary ceremonies of the cults of the Apis and Memphis sacred bulls. Unlike the other people with dwarfism’s biographies here from ancient Egypt, Djeho’s patron was a non-royal elite.
