Tomb KV5 is a subterranean, rock-cut tomb in the Valley of the Kings. It belonged to the sons of Ramesses II. Though KV5 was partially excavated as early as 1825, its true extent was discovered in 1995 by Kent R. Weeks and his exploration team. The tomb is now known to be the largest in the Valley of the Kings. Weeks' discovery is widely considered the most dramatic in the valley since the discovery of the tomb of Tutankhamun in 1922.

Lara continues her quest in the level called KV5. KV stands for Kings Valley. KV5 is a tomb of the sons of Rameses II. It was a gigantic tomb that housed 70 sons and daughters that died during his lifetime.

06.01 - Hieroglyphics

Didn’t found these hieroglyphics on the internet. 

06.02 - Cartouche

These vertical cartouches came from the Tomb of Rameses IV (KV2) from the ceiling.. These are the names and titles of the pharaoh. Nesut-Biti (king of Upper- and Lower-Egypt), Neb-tawi (lord of the two lands), Praenomen, Sa-Ra (Son or Ra), Neb-Khau (unknown). Nomen with Ramses in it.

06.03 - Ceiling

The ceiling came from the book of Heavens of the Tomb of Rameses IV (KV2). It tells about gods of the night, when the goddess of heaven (Nut) swallows the sun and the journey of the sun. The ancient Egyptians really loved good stories ^_^

For the first time I enjoyed a (virtual) view into an ancient Egyptian tomb with this link: https://bit.ly/2kLfhJD. This one is a screenshot which contains the scenery above. It contains the heavenly bark of Ra 

06.04 - Thoth, the king and Horus.

It is the king between the gods Thoth (moongod) and Horus. I can identify him as King Ramses III from his tomb KV11. Found on pinterest: https://www.pinterest.fr/pin/813322013935790113/

06.05 - Kings on thrones.

This is a scenery of Abu Simbel temple in Egypt near the border of Sudan. It is a temple of Ramses II seated on four thrones. In the scenery we see a smaller princess and a fan-bearing prince, most likely children.

In 1995, as part of a project to map and photograph every tomb in an area known as the Theban Necropolis,  called the Theban Mapping Project, Kent Weeks made a discovery. While excavating KV5, he discovered a labyrinth of hallways leading to more than 100 rooms.  The burial place of the sons of Ramesses II.

The KV-5 is a Soviet  heavy tank.

Development was started in June 1941 at the Leningrad Kirov Plant and completed by August, but the German invasion prevented development from progressing to the prototype stage. The KV-5 was expected to share some components with the KV-1. A new turret was designed, incorporating the 107-mm ZIS-6 gun. Early plans called for a new 1,200 hp diesel engine, but later adjustments, recognizing wartime disruptions, replaced this with two V-2K engines.
