The workers who prepared the royal tombs and lived there in what has been called "the earliest known artists' colony" left a rich store of artifacts and documents through which we can glimpse not only their working conditions and domestic activities, but also their religious beliefs and private thoughts UR - https://doi.org/10.7591/9781501727610 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9781501727610 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9781501727610/original ER -
