look at this ancient Egyptian nepo baby

In the lower left-hand corner of the inscription, Weni stands in the position of respect with one hand placed on the opposite shoulder, looking back on his career and honoring the names of the kings that occur throughout his biography. He does not mention any of his family members by name, including his father, the Vizier Iuu. He also claims that he achieved his high position entirely on his own merit. Archaeologists believed this was true until the 1999 Michigan work confirmed his father was the Vizier Iuu.
