Valley of the Kings on the west bank of the Nile at Luxor, Egypt. Oct.2008 With the 2005 discovery of a new chamber, and the 2008 discovery of 2 further tomb entrances, the valley is known to contain 62 tombs and chambers (ranging in size from a simple pit to a complex tomb with over 120 chambers), and was the principal burial place of the major royal figures of the Egyptian New Kingdom, together with those of a number of privileged nobles. The royal tombs are decorated with scenes from Egyptian mythology and give clues to the beliefs and funerary rituals of the period. All of the tombs seem to have been opened and robbed in antiquity, but they still give an idea of the opulence and power of the rulers of this time.

Tombs in Thebes, Valley of the Workers The Valley of the Workers is the site of a complete village for the skilled craftsmen and laborers working on the tombs in the Valley of the Kings, the Valley of the Queens and possibly even the Valley of the Nobles. Small, modest houses are packed against winding streets in this little valley, and the workers built and decorated their own tombs here. This is the necropolis of Deir el-Medina.

The Colossi of Memnon (known to locals as el-Colossat, or es-Salamat) are two massive stone statues of Pharaoh Amenhotep III. For the past 3400 years they have stood in the Theban necropolis, across the River Nile from the modern city of Luxor. The twin statues depict Amenhotep III (fl. 14th century BC) in a seated position, his hands resting on his knees and his gaze turned eastward toward the river and the rising sun. Two shorter figures are carved into the front throne alongside his legs: these are his wife Tiy and mother Mutemwiya. The side panels depict the Nile god Hapy. The statues are made from blocks of quartzite sandstone which was stone quarried at el-Gabal el-Ahmar (near modern-day Cairo) and transported 420 miles over land without using the Nile to Thebes. They are too heavy to transport upstream on the Nile. The blocks used by the engineers of Septimius Severus to reconstruct the north colossus may have come from Edfu (north of Aswan). Including the stone platforms on which they stand, they reach a towering 18 metres (approx. 60 ft) in height. They weigh an estimated 700 tons each. (Wikipedia) Egypt, Oct.2008
