Aswan - Tombs of the Nobles
 

 
 

Tomb of Sirenput 2, the best preserved wall-painting of the Temple of the Nobles. Sirenput is seated and receives flowers from his son.
 

The larger tombs have staircases going all the way down to the Nile. Processions crossed the Nile on boats, then carried offerings up the staircase and performed rituals mainly in front of the tombs.
