TT57 Khaemhat

The Theban Tomb TT57 is located in Sheikh Abd el-Qurna. It forms part of the Theban Necropolis, situated on the west bank of the Nile opposite Luxor. The tomb is the burial place of the ancient Egyptian official Khaemhat, who was royal scribe and overseer of double granary, during the reign Amenhotep III. The relief decoration of the tomb is regarded as the best of New Kingdom art. It seems that the tomb of Khaemhat was always exposed and known. Many early travelers visited the tomb and made drawings of the scenes. These include Nestor L'Hôte and the expedition guided by Karl Richard Lepsius. They also copied and published several scenes. Other travelers made squeezes of the reliefs.
