KV29

KV29 is an unexcavated royal tomb in the Valley of the Kings near Luxor on the west bank of the Nile. The burial site consists of limestone structures buried beneath the desert among numerous other royal graves in this necropolis.

The tomb dates to the New Kingdom period and has remained in its original condition since that era. Its excavation has not yet occurred, which may preserve archaeological discoveries still waiting beneath the sands.

The location of this tomb within the Valley reflects ancient Egyptian beliefs about royal passage into the afterlife. Underground burial chambers were central to how the civilization honored its deceased rulers.

This grave remains closed to visitors, but the surrounding Valley offers access to excavated tombs through guided tours. These visits help you understand the archaeological context of the entire necropolis.

The tomb has remained untouched since ancient times and may hold secrets from an era not yet fully understood. Archaeologists view such unexplored sites as windows into unknown royal stories.
