Shoshenq II's prenomen, Heqakheperre Setepenre, means 'The manifestation of Ra rules, the chosen one of Ra.' Shoshenq II's enigmatic identity Montet later discovered the intact tombs of two Twenty-first Dynasty kings ( Psusennes I and Amenemope) a year later in February and April 1940 respectively. The facemask had been placed upon the head of the king. It proved to contain many jewel-encrusted bracelets and pectorals, along with a beautiful hawkheaded silver coffin and a gold funerary mask.
