Tomb of Ramses III - The tomb of Ramesses III, known as KV 11, is a complex system in the Valley of the Kings. Known since antiquity, its stunning decorations include colorful painted sunken reliefs featuring traditional ritual texts (Litany of Ra, Book of Gates, etc.) and Ramses before the gods. Unique to this tomb are the secular scenes in the small side rooms of the entrance corridor, depicting foreign tributes, such as intricately detailed pottery from the Aegean, the royal armory, boats, and in the last of these side chambers, the blind harpists that earned the tomb one of its alternative names: ‘Tomb of the Harpers’.
-
Tomb of Ramses IX - The Tomb of King Ramesses IX was the third pharaoh of the Twentieth Dynasty of the New Kingdom of Ancient Egypt. His name before assuming the crown was Amonhirkhopshef. He was the fifth son of Ramesses III and was appointed crown prince by the twenty-second year of his father’s reign after all four of his elder brothers predeceased his promotion. The tomb is rich in color and detail, even the ceiling above the sarcophagi with its goddess Nut stretching across the space. The sarcophagus is one of the largest in the valley, and despite some deterioration of the paintings, it remains one of the most decorated.
-
Temple of Hatshepsut at Deir el Bahari - After visiting the tombs, visitors will be transported to the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut (Deir el Bahari), the only woman to reign over Egypt as Pharaoh. This queen was an ancestor of King Tutankhamun and belonged to the same dynasty.
-
Tomb of Merenptah - In Egyptian mythology, Ptah is the demiurge of Memphis, god of craftsmen and architects. In its falcon form, the new deity began to be placed in tombs to accompany and protect the dead on their journey to the West of Luxor. Tomb 8, located in the Valley of the Kings, was the burial place of Pharaoh Merneptah and serves as a model of royal tombs. Merneptah was a son of Ramesses II and Queen Isis-Nofret. The tomb was discovered by Howard Carter in 1903. There is a notable decrease in the number of lateral rooms and a dramatic increase in the height of the corridors and rooms. He eliminated the jogged axis used since Horemheb’s time and instead built the entire tomb on a single axis. Additionally, for the first time, the entrance was made considerably wider than earlier tombs.
