- Info Passage of the tomb KV9 of the pharaohs Ramesses V and Ramses VI, Valley of the Kings, Luxor, Egypt. The tomb was originally constructed by Pharaoh Ramesses V (who reigned between 1149–1145 BC). He was interred here, but his uncle, Ramesses VI (who reigned eight full years and two months in the mid-to-late 12th century BC), later reused the tomb as his own. The layout is typical of the 20th Dynasty – the Ramesside period. The workmen accidentally broke into KV12 (probably used for multiple burials of royal family members in the Eighteenth, Nineteenth and Twentieth Dynasties) as they dug one of the corridors. The KV9 tomb has some of the most diverse decoration in the Valley of the Kings. In the image the first hall, also called pillared hall, is depicted; a double scene of Osiris (God of fertility) is visible in the middle, above the ramp descending to the second corridor. Note: Surprisingly we have no FPs of ancient Egypt. c/u/n by Poco a poco (talk) 10:15, 10 September 2022 (UTC)

- Comment Almost. Can you remove or at least decrease the color noise that's mostly in the foreground and middleground? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 10:41, 10 September 2022 (UTC)

- Support per GRDN711. I remember that when we visited the tombs in 1988 or so, we almost gave up to take photographs – the light was very difficult (for the cameras and films of that time) and the many people ruined the shots. So this photo is a real achievement. --Aristeas (talk) 08:14, 15 September 2022 (UTC)
