The tomb was discovered in the necropolis of Sheikh Abd el-Qurna on the West Bank of the Nile near Luxor (ancient Thebes). The discovery was made during an archaeological expedition led by the University of Alabama in collaboration with the Ministry of Antiquities of Egypt. Karakhamun was a priest and a high-ranking official who served during the 25th and 26th dynasties (c. 750-664 BCE). His tomb is notable for its well-preserved condition and the vivid colors of its painted decorations. The tomb consists of an entrance corridor, a transverse hall, and a burial chamber. The walls of the tomb are adorned with scenes depicting religious rituals, offering bearers, and other traditional funerary motifs. The burial chamber contains a burial shaft leading to the burial chamber below. The discovery of Karakhamun's tomb provides valuable insights into the religious practices, burial customs, and social structure of ancient Egypt during the Third Intermediate Period. Archaeological findings and discoveries like Karakhamun's tomb contribute significantly to our understanding of the rich history and culture of ancient Egypt.
