PENUT'S TOMB
Go there and contact
This is the only Nubian tomb that survived the flood. It was carried out for Penout, a high-ranking official of Ramses VI. It was located 40 kilometres south of its present location, not far from Kasr Ibrim.
The tomb consists of a chapel and the tomb itself, dug out of a niche. The burial well, which opened in the middle of the room, remained in place when the monument was transferred. The frieze representing the deceased and his children is particularly beautiful, the linen veils of the clothes being very refined.
