Explore the tomb of Meresankh III, granddaughter of King Khufu (Cheops), the builder of the Great Pyramid, and daughter of Hetepheres II. She was the wife of either Khafre (Chefren) or Menkaure (Mykerinos). Her unique rock-cut chapel (labeled G 7530-7540) preserves beautifully carved and painted scenes of the queen and her royal family, as well as servants, artisans, and funerary priests.The scenes also depict the sort of rich burial goods that would have been placed in Meresankh’s tomb: statues and fine furniture; boxes containing food, clothing, and jewelry; even a representation of the black granite sarcophagus that was actually found in situ in her burial chamber.
