JamesO > This tomb was the most colorful of our day in the Valley of the Nobles.

JamesO > The tomb features lovely paintings, magnificent columns, and exceptional carvings. The styles incorporate both traditional and Amarna styles.

JamesO > It was also the site of James' adventure into the hidden recesses of the mountain.

JamesO > The red and blond head coverings here were unlike anything we saw elsewhere. Were these wigs, head coverings, or the hair of captured peoples from distant lands?

JamesO > Note the tears of the women.

JamesO > This is the guy who presides over the tomb. Officially no photographs are allowed in here, but he was all too anxious to have me take pictures and then accompany him down into a roped off area that was like a mad-hatter's ride down into the bowels of the mountain.
