KV9

Tomb KV9 in Egypt's Valley of the Kings was originally constructed by Pharaoh Ramesses V. He was interred here, but his uncle Ramesses VI later reused the tomb as his own. The layout is typical of the 20th dynasty – the Ramesside period – and is much simpler than that of Ramesses III's tomb (KV11).The workmen accidentally broke into KV12 as they dug one of the corridors. The tomb was featured in the first episode of the 2005 BBC documentary series How Art Made the World.
