KV15, Ancient Egyptian tomb in Valley of the Kings, Luxor, Egypt
The underground burial site extends 88 meters into limestone rock, containing multiple chambers decorated with hieroglyphic inscriptions and religious paintings from ancient Egypt.
King Seti II constructed this tomb during the Nineteenth Dynasty period, between 1203-1197 BCE, marking a period of architectural advancement in royal burial structures.
The walls display scenes from the Book of Gates and Book of Amduat, fundamental religious texts that guided pharaohs through their journey in the afterlife.
Visitors can access the tomb daily from 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM with an entrance fee of 2000 Egyptian pounds, which includes entry to other tombs.
Howard Carter used this tomb as a research laboratory during his excavation work on Tutankhamun's burial chamber in the early twentieth century.
