TT15, Ancient tomb in Dra' Abu el-Naga, Egypt.
The tomb TT15 features chambers cut into bedrock accessed through a vertical shaft, with outer buildings constructed from mud brick materials.
Howard Carter and his team excavated the tomb in 1908 on behalf of Lord Carnarvon, revealing the burial place of Tetiky, Mayor of Thebes.
The tomb walls display an early representation of the double-Uraeus symbol, which later developed into a standard element of royal Egyptian imagery.
The tomb structure includes both a chapel section and underground burial chambers, with decorated sections recently returned from the Louvre museum.
The tomb contains rare depictions of King's Wife Ahmose-Nefertari making offerings to the goddess Hathor during the early Eighteenth Dynasty period.
