In ancient times, this entire large hill was a site dedicated only to burials at that time, with the presence of more than 100 pharaonic tombs, all dating back to the reigns of the eighteenth century BC..

As all of those important and prominent figures in the country at that time were buried at the top of the large hill in the northeastern region, as it was located within sight of Deir El Bahari.

It was only later in time, when the place or hill was filled with tombs, that the dignitaries of that time had already used the lower part of the hill to build and construct tombs..

Interior design of Tomb of Djeserkareseneb

The external appearance of the tomb of Gesr-Kare-Seneb presents the usual appearance that we are accustomed to, which is related to the tomb complexes that were made and made during the reign of the Eighteenth Dynasty..

The tomb of Gesr Kare Seneb initially consisted of an open courtyard, then there were two internal rooms..

The inner chambers of the tomb that were built in that place were in the shape of the letter T, but inverted..

You can also reach the chamber designated for burial usually through the well. That well is either located in that large courtyard in the place or it is located in one of the internal rooms, but when we talk about that tomb, it is located within the scope of the first room..

Description of the tomb of the bridge of Kare Seneb

The complex of that pharaonic tomb was cut into a slope. This slope was made of limestone, “Ancient Egyptian Metallurgy,” so that it would be very steep, and at the same time it also consisted of a material that was rarely used at that time, which was oil shale..

But unfortunately at that time, the operations to allocate all the large expenses that were made in order to extract those stones that were present in the cemetery were not completed..

As a result, many of the stone or interior walls in the tomb are not straight at all, and the two ends in the first room appear completely asymmetrical..

At the present time, in order to facilitate visiting the cemetery of Kare Seneb Bridge, we find that a group of those modern steps located in the cemetery lead to where the courtyard is located..

It is also not a pharaonic building but a modern building that was made mainly to facilitate movement..

The surrounding walls are made of a group of rubble placed in mortar and then directed to be made of gypsum made of soft stone to indicate the development of Industry in ancient Egypt.
