TT71, Ancient Egyptian tomb in Sheikh Abd el-Qurna necropolis, Egypt.

This rock-cut tomb, designated as TT71, stands in the northern section of Sheikh Abd el-Qurna, featuring architectural elements typical of New Kingdom burial structures.

The tomb dates from the period of intense construction activity during the 18th Dynasty when numerous officials selected Sheikh Abd el-Qurna for their eternal residences.

The structure belongs to Senenmut, reflecting the practice of high-ranking officials establishing their final resting places near the temples they served.

Visitors can reach the tomb by following the marked paths through the necropolis, with guided tours available through local archaeological services.

Despite its completion and designation, archaeological records indicate this tomb remained unused, preserving its original architectural state without modifications.
