TT11, Ancient Egyptian tomb in Dra' Abu el-Naga, Egypt.

The tomb contains multiple chambers with decorative elements, including walls adorned with texts from the Book of the Dead and a ceiling depicting goddess Nut.

TT11 served as the burial place for Djehuty, who held the position of Overseer of Treasury and Works during Queen Hatshepsut's reign in the 18th Dynasty.

The tomb's architecture and decorations provide extensive information about New Kingdom period burial practices and religious beliefs from 1550-1069 BC.

The tomb connects to neighboring TT12 through a third tomb structure, TT399, forming an interconnected complex within the Theban Necropolis.

Recent excavations revealed a Middle Kingdom burial of a man named Iker within the courtyard, adding an additional historical layer to the tomb complex.
