This granite head of unknown provenance has been credited to Khefren due to the close resemblance of this statue's facial features t other, identified statues of the same king. The shape of the nose, mouth and face as well as the way the king's headdress, the nemes have been executed in a way that is very similar to other statues of Khefren.
It has even been suggested that this statue might originally have stood in the king's mortuary temple at Giza.
