Egypt Valley of the Kings |
The Valley of the Kings and the Valley of the Queens are part of an area known as
the Theban Necropolis and lie on the opposite side of the Nile from the town of Luxor
Sixty-three tombs have been discovered in the Valley of the Kings - more almost
certainly still lie hidden beneath the ground
Many of the tombs are very deep and quite elaborate in construction
The hieroglyphs inside the tombs have been protected from
the weather over the millennia and are quite well preserved
