Answer 1

The day is March 2nd 1881. I have finally found the tomb of Ramses II in the Valley of the Kings on the West Bank at Luxor (ancient Thebes). The tomb smells like spices and also oils. It is very quite except for the sound of wind going through the tunnels. The tomb is about 820 square meters and there is a sarcophagus that is made of fine woods and gold.The top of the sarcophagus it shows Ramses II wearing a headdress and is shown with crossed arms that carry a crook and flail, the latter which have decorative details painted on in red and blue paint. The king is also shown wearing a braided beard with a curved end, the so called “divine beard.On the front of the nemes headdress, a wooden ureaus (cobra) is attached. The uraeus traditionally represents the goddess Wadjet. there is hieroglyphics on the walls. The once magnificent paintings on the wall have mostly flaked off. I also see vases all around its probably his organs. There are texts about the organs in the vases. There are many items in here.
