Meryre's tomb describes how Akhenaten presented Meryre with his titles:

Pharaoh spoke to him on this occasion with the following words: "Here I am present to promote thee to be Chief Seer of the Disk of the Sun, in the temple of the Sun of the city of Akhetaten. Be thou such, according to thy wish, for thou was my servant, who was obediant to the (new) teaching. Besides thee, none has done this. My heart is full of contentment because of this; therefore I give thee this office, saying, Eat of the nourishment of Pharaoh thy lord in the temple of the Sun."
