KV10, Ancient Egyptian tomb at Valley of the Kings, Egypt.

The 105-meter-long burial chamber features a series of descending corridors and chambers carved into the limestone of the valley walls.

Archaeological excavations revealed that Pharaoh Amenmesse initiated the construction of KV10 during the Nineteenth Dynasty of the New Kingdom period.

The tomb walls display modifications of decorative elements, showing scenes of two royal women, Takhat and Baketwernel, from the late 20th Dynasty.

Visitors can access KV10 through organized tours of the Valley of the Kings, located on the west bank of the Nile near Luxor.

The tomb's architecture incorporates multiple hallways that extend deep into the hillside, following the natural geological formations of the valley.
