Astrological Ceiling in Egyptian Burial Chamber

1
Earlier this summer archaeologists rediscovered the 'lost' burial chamber of an ancient Egyptian priest at the Theban Necropolis in Egypt. The tomb is located at Qurnet Murai, south Assasif, on the west bank of the Nile opposite to Luxor, and belonged to a priest named Karakhamun.

It dates to the 25th Dynasty (the Reign of Shabaqo, circa 700BC). The entrance to the chamber is decorated with an image of Karakhamun and the ceiling is decorated with several astrological scenes, including a depiction of the sky goddess, Nut.
