KV 5 : a preliminary report on the excavation of the tomb of the sons of Rameses II in the Valley of the Kings /
:
"The Theban Mapping Project (TMP) was established in 1979 to prepare a detailed survey and archaeological database for the Theban Necropolis. As part of its work in the Valley of the Kings, it relocated KV 5. Clearing that tomb, the TMP discovered that what had been thought to be an unimportant, uninteresting, uninscribed pit tomb was actually the largest tomb ever found in Egypt. KV 5 is known to have 150 corridors and chambers on several levels and many more are likely to be discovered. The tomb is unique in size and plan and in its function as a family mausoleum for many of the sons of the pharaoh Rameses II." "This is the first technical report on KV5. It covers much of the work undertaken between 1988 and 1999. Copiously illustrated, this study is a reference for understanding one of the most important discoveries ever made in the Theban Necropolis."--Jacket.

The Treasures of the Valley of the Kings : tombs and temples of the Theban West Bank in Luxor /
:
From the austere beauty of the tombs in the Valleys of the Kings and Queens, the measured geometry of Queen Hatshepsut's funerary temple of Deir el-Bahari, and the regal colonnades of the Ramesseum to the always edifying and sometimes witty depiction of daily life in the private necropolises, the art and architecture of the Theban West Bank presents us with the panorama of Egyptian life in the glorious New Kingdom 3,500 years ago.
