TT50, Ancient tomb in Sheikh Abd el-Qurna, Egypt

The TT50 tomb contains multiple chambers adorned with wall paintings depicting agricultural activities, religious ceremonies, and daily life scenes from ancient Egypt.

During the reign of Pharaoh Horemheb in the 18th Dynasty, Neferhotep, who held the title Divine Father of Amun-re, received valuable gifts recorded in the tomb's inscriptions.

The tomb walls display detailed representations of Neferhotep's family members, including his brother Parennefer and daughter Rennut, performing traditional offering ceremonies.

The burial site sits within the Theban Necropolis complex on the western bank of the Nile River, opposite the modern city of Luxor.

Inscriptions within TT50 document a specific event from the third year of Pharaoh Horemheb's rule when he summoned Neferhotep to his palace.
