The tomb was discovered inside a small pyramid about 7 meters high, designed into three arch chambers with an entrance and two burial chambers.
Materials make a brick tomb and build a dome like a ceiling.With this design, archaeologists believe that the cost will be very expensive and can be a grave for the wealthy or servant in the ancient army.
A heart-shaped talisman is rarely seen about 6cm tall. The face of the talisman is made of red jade and the body is made of green jade with a wig made from a mysterious stone. These are two types of pearls that are difficult to carve. Archaeologists believe that this charm can be placed on the chest of one of the dead and it can be related to the magic of the Book of the Dead with the meaning said that the dead do not lie.The ancient Egyptians believed, the weight of the heart of the dead would be compared to the feather of the goddess Ma'at, a symbol of truth and justice.If the person's heart is equal to or lighter than the feather, he will have immortality, but if it is heavier then he will be destroyed.
When excavated, archaeologists discovered one of the burial chambers of the grave with a sandstone sarcophagus, red paint and for a preacher or letter named Horemheb.Especially on the coffin there are images of gods and magic in the Book of the Dead.
A close-up of a part of the casket has the image of Anubis with the wolf head on the right and Duamutef, the son of Horus on the left.The right column has hieroglyphs indicating Horembeb's name and title of preacher.
The lower right corner of the coffin with the image of the god Thoth, specialized in taking notes and knowledge.This god has a humanoid but the Ibis bird's head, a bird of the Heron family, is also known as the stork.
The excavation team carefully moved the coffin from the grave.Under the sun, the coffin showed vivid images.
A small statue of Shabti is found in another burial chamber but there is no coffin.Shabti was created to help the deceased in the afterlife.Above the Shabti statue, there is an inscription on this statue for Ramesu (also known as Ramesses).This is a trophy in the army.Ramesu is believed to be Horemheb's father or brother.
