This tomb was begun by King Ramesses V (c.1147-1143 BCE) of the 20th Dynasty. Although it is uncertain whether he was ultimately buried here, it is clear that his uncle Ramesses VI (c.1143-1136 BCE) enlarged the tomb and used it for his burial. The tomb is simple in plan, essentially consisting of a series of descending corridors that lead deep underground, in a straight line to the burial chamber. The exquisitely painted sunk relief walls are very well preserved. With some of the broadest corridors, longest shafts (117 m in total) and greatest variety of decoration, this tomb is one of the most spectacular tombs in the Valley of the Kings.
