QV52
Historic site in Luxor
The Tomb of Tyti, also known as QV52, is a tomb in the Valley of the Queens, within the Theban Necropolis, on the west bank of the Nile opposite Luxor, Egypt. It was cut for Queen Tyti, wife of Ramesses III and, according to the most widely accepted identification, mother of Ramesses IV. The inscriptions in the tomb record Tyti's royal titles; the painted and relief decoration follows the deceased queen on her journey through the Duat, the Egyptian underworld, showing the protection of Osiris and rebirth through the solar cycle. The plan includes a ramped access, a corridor, a burial chamber, two side chambers and a rear chamber. The tomb was reused during the Third Intermediate Period.
