WV24, Ancient tomb in Valley of the Kings, Egypt

The KV24-KV33 tomb extends 6.43 meters in length and stands at an elevation of 192.27 meters within the Valley of the Kings necropolis complex.

Victor Loret discovered these burial chambers in 1898, during his systematic exploration of the Valley of the Kings archaeological sites in Luxor.

The tomb structure reflects Egyptian burial practices from the New Kingdom period, featuring descending steps that lead into chambers designed for eternal rest.

Visitors reach the tomb through marked pathways in the Valley of the Kings, where morning hours provide cooler temperatures for exploration.

Recent excavations uncovered original stone seals and pottery fragments that date the tomb to the reign of Thutmose III in the Eighteenth Dynasty.
