We will discuss the decorative scheme of non-royal Theban tombs, and how they evolved throughout the New Kingdom.
This lecture will discuss the decorative scheme of non-royal Theban tombs, and how they evolved throughout the New Kingdom. Typical Eighteenth Dynasty decorative themes will be analysed, identifying the importance of specific scenes and their location within the tomb, before considering the evolution of tomb decoration and design after the Amarna Period, and into the Ramesside Period.
