Tomb of Nakht (TT52)
Nakht was a scribe who held the title ‘Astronomer of Amun’ or ‘Observer of the Hours’ (of the night) in Dynasty XVIII, probably during the reign of Tuthmose IV or Amenhotep III (based on the style of artwork).
His tomb can be found in the village area of Sheikh ‘Abd el-Qurna just east of the tomb of Menna.
At the end of the 1980s, this tomb underwent an experimental restoration in the hope of finding a satisfactory technique for the preservation of tomb paintings, and its walls were covered with glass.
Nakht’s tomb was never completed and the passage, although plastered, did not contain the funerary scenes which would have traditionally appeared there.
The wall paintings in the offering hall or vestibule, however, are very colorful and well-preserved and some of the more striking ones are very famous.
