ABSTRACT
DEEP below the foundations of the 'Valley'-Temple of Queen Hatshepsut in the Birâbi are rock-hewn tombs, 01 pit and corridor types, dating from the XHth Dynasty on to the Intermediate Period.
This fact was first ascertained in 1910, and in that year twelve tombs of this necropolis were opened. Their exploration was continued in 1911, when four more were revealed, and three out of the four were thoroughly investigated.
