Quartzite statues depict King Amenhotep III sitting on a throne. The statues are still about 18 meters high, including the pedestal.
The Valley of the Kings was a necropolis in Ancient Egypt, the ancient Egyptians called the Valley of the Kings Sechet-aat “the great field”. The Valley of the Kings is the largest burial place of the Egyptian pharaohs. In particular, the tombs of the rulers of the new kingdom can be found in the Valley of the Kings. The valley is located in Western Thebes, opposite Karnak, on the edge of the desert and surrounded by high mountains.
