The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It is a wadi sitting on the west bank of the Nile, opposite Thebes and within the heart of the Theban Necropolis.
- There are two main sections: the East Valley, where the majority of the royal tombs are situated, and the West Valley, otherwise known as the Valley of the Monkeys.
- With the 2005 discovery of a new chamber and the 2008 discovery of two further tomb entrances, the Valley of the Kings is known to contain 65 tombs and chambers, ranging in size from the simple pit that is KV54 to the complex tomb that is KV5, which alone has over 120 chambers for the sons of Ramesses II.
