This shabti belonging to Pasenhor, as the inscription on the back points out, represents a foreman. He was in charge of watching over a gang of ten workmen shabti who were carrying out agricultural works on the divine fields. Thus, he is shown wearing a short skirt, short wig and a flagellum in his hand.
