TT4, Ancient tomb in Deir el-Medina, Egypt

The burial chamber TT4 contains detailed wall paintings showing Qen with his wives Nefertari and Henutmehyt, along with their children and extended family members.

Dating from the New Kingdom period between 1550 and 1069 BC, TT4 served as the final resting place for Qen, who held the title Servant in the Place of Truth.

The walls of TT4 display religious scenes of Qen worshipping various Egyptian deities including Osiris, Ptah, Maat, Anubis, and Hathor through ceremonial offerings.

Located in the Theban Necropolis on the western bank of the Nile River, opposite to Luxor, TT4 forms part of an extensive collection of ancient burial structures.

The tomb features a specific niche on its west wall that houses a statue, while the north wall contains two distinct registers depicting different family gatherings.
