. . . . Wow... This burial chamber is big
enough to play a game of full court basketball. It's a huge pillared
chamber with a vaulted ceiling. At one time the ceiling was
beautifully painted with the constellations of the night sky. In the
center of the chamber stands the pink granite sarcophagus of the
Pharaoh. It is carved in the shape of a cartouche with the image of the dead king lying with his arms
crossed holding the flail
and crook.
