The tomb's owner is named Nakht and initially Fischer conjectured that the tomb belonged to Heqanakht, but the titles do not seem to match.^[2] The tomb was then conjectured to belong to Anhernakht, who was likely the son of Minnakht and Tanedjemet.^[3]

Later work by Lanny Bell shows that the tomb belongs to Nakhtmin.^[2] The tomb contained two sarcophagi which did not record the names, but items including a faience knob and ushabtis are inscribed for Nakhtmin (sometimes transliterated as Minnakht).^[2]
