a double doorway to the inner hall is on the west wall, with a broad pillar dividing the doors. its surface depicts the two men, their children, drawn much smaller to reflect a lesser status, in tow behind each parent. the respective wives do not appear in this scene. niankhkhnum has three sons and three daughters, khnumhotep five sons and one daughter, some of whom may be adopted or conceived by a second wife or mistress as they lack the shendyt kilts worn by the others. all the children except niankhkhnum's youngest son, who still runs naked with his shaved head bearing the single sidelock of youth, are adults despite the scale they are drawn at. ptahshepses, a son of khnumhotep, wore the youth sidelock in the marsh scene of the forecourt but not so here. either inconsistency intrudes, or the art, completed over years, reflects some changes of status which transpire during the tomb's construction.
