TAA i.3.31.11

                                           (11)

from "The Book of that which is in the Netherworld."

          In the Turin Papyrus the Sarcophagus Chamber (of 

curtailed design) is called either "The House of Gold," 

or "The Chariot-Hall," v. supra.

          Adjoining the Sarcophagus Chamber are four small 

treasuries which, to avoid confusion, I have lettered 

Y, a & b., Z, c & d.

         Now if the tomb of Tutankhamen is compared with 

this traditional Eighteenth Dynasty Theban tomb-plan, 

and if the above system of lettering the various parts 

is applied to it, we atonce^sic see that its so-called 

Burial Chamber is the equivalent to Z. the rear portion <position slot>/<posterior part>

of the Sarcophagus Chamber ,/<(>i.e. the 'well' for the 

sarcophagus,<)> with one treasury Z, d., and that the so-

called Antechamber <is> Y. the front portion/<anterior part> of the Sar<c>oph-

agus Chamber, modified, with one tr<e>asury Y, b. But 

from the fact that the <a> rear portion Z. was cut off 

from the front portion Y. by a masonry partition-wall, 

it is<,> in this case<,> admissable^sic that section Y. may also 

have served as the Antechamber X., called "The Hall 

of Waiting." Moreover, if we apply to the Sunken 

Stairway Entrance the letter O., and to the Descending 

Passage the letter P., we see that atleast^sic seven parts 

(Q, R, S, T, U, V & W.) of the tomb-plan are missing. In 

fact, the architect who designed Tutankhamen's tomb 

has given the young/<boy> king the minimum number of chambers 

pertaining to the <Theban> convention.

          As to the question, who was that architect? – we have 

some indication.
