TT192 complex

The tomb of Kheruef is large enough to have several later tombs associated with it, or placed within its substructure. These tombs date from the 19th Dynasty all the way to the late period.

  • Tombs TT189 (Nakhtdjehuty), TT190 (Esbanebdjed) and TT191 (Wahibre-nebpehti) have their entries on the east side of the north wall of the courtyard of Kheruef's tomb. The tombs date to the Late Period.
  • Tombs TT189 (Nakhtdjehuty) and TT194 (Thutemhab) have entrances off the east side of the courtyard of TT193. A stela of TT193 is located in front of these structures.
  • Tombs TT195 (Bakenamun), TT196 (Padihorresnet), TT406 (Piay) and TT364 (Amenemhab) have entries located on the south wall of the courtyard.
  • Tomb TT407 (Bintenduanetjer) is located off the south side of the first columned hall of Kheruef's tomb.Porter, Bertha and Moss, Rosalind, Topographical Bibliography of Ancient Egyptian Hieroglyphic Texts, Statues, Reliefs and Paintings Volume I: The Theban Necropolis, Part I.

Decoration

The reliefs in the tomb contain depictions of Tiye, Amenhotep III (shown as a weak and elderly figure in some decorations)Grimal, Nicolas. A History of Ancient Egypt, Blackwell Books: 1992, p. 225 and Akhenaten (named as Amenhotep). Hence, its decoration program started late in the final years of Amenhotep III and the earliest phase of Akhenaten's reign.{{cite web|url=http://oi.uchicago.edu/OI/IS/DORMAN/COREGENCY/LongCoregency.pdf|title=A Re-examination of the Long Coregency from the Tomb of Kheruef|author=Peter Dorman|accessdate=2007-06-20|archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20070125173120/http://oi.uchicago.edu/OI/IS/DORMAN/COREGENCY/LongCoregency.pdf |archivedate = 2007-01-25}}
