Mahirpre was a important official of the Eighteenth Dynasty.

Mahirpre was too called a Child of the Nursery or a veteran of the Kap. This title denoted the fact that Mahirpre was grown with Tuthmosis IV and/or Amenhotep III in the royal apartments held for the children of the ruler. His name implied Lion Of The Battlefield.

His wooden sarcophagus was more than nine feet long, painted and embellished with gold leaf. Three human coffins were took in his tomb.
Mahirpres mummified clay provide details about him as well. He was slightly established, with a dark brown skin color. A wig composed of corkscrew curls was pasted to his skull. The skin on the resoles of his feet is lost. The tomb of Mahirpre included an osiris bed, a depicting fashioned of the deity out of barleycorn and then established. A beautifully illustrated book of the dead was buried with Mahirpre, in which he is showed with dark skin, denoting his racial blood.
