Khaemwaset E

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Khaemwaset (referred to as Khaemwaset E to distinguish him from the son of Ramesses II of the same name) was a son Ramesses III.

His tomb is in the Valley of the Queens in Thebes (modern day Luxor) and is considered one of the most beautiful tombs by Egyptologists. Its colored reliefs are in a good state of preservation. It contains religious and funerary scenes and was discovered in 1903.

The tomb consists of a first corridor, two side chambers, a second corridor, and the burial chamber.
