The World's Most Famous Archaeological Underworld


Archaeology is a religion for illuminated individuals, however if you cross the Gods you will suffer the consequences. Many men have risked their lives in pursuit of historical relics, many have never returned.

The Valley of the Kings in Egypt is located on the West Bank of the Nile River within “the heart of the Theban Necropolis”. This illuminated place is said to hold the Wealth of Egypt where Kings and Queens were laid to rest and their treasure was buried with them. Many men have died risking their lives to discover the mysteries of this sacred place, some have never returned.

The Theban Hills by the peak of al-Qurn, known to the Ancient Egyptians as ta dehent is reminiscent of the pyramids of the Old Kingdom.

The location was isolated and protected providing the guards were on duty. Read the Full Story here

Beautiful images and great write up. The Valley of the Kings has always been a location I would love to travel to before I die. China was another, which I will be going to in July.

I hope that someday I can visit this beautiful archeological site and other sites in Egypt.
It's a great feeling to see these part of the history.
