The polychrome reliefs come from the southern portico of the second terrace of the temple of Deir el Bahari and are part of the reliefs illustrating the expedition to the country of Punt ordered by Queen Hatshepsut to procure valuable and exotic products such as frankincense and myrrh trees (antyu and senetjer), spices, gold, precious woods and animals. This section of the reliefs shows figures laden with gifts to be exchanged with the Egyptian expedition (right); the two figures on the left are the rulers of Punt: King Parekhu and Queen Ity (with a conspicuous body deformity possibly due to steatopygia).
