Tomb A.5

Tomb A.5 is the modern number given to a now lost Theban tomb in Dra' Abu el-Naga'. The burial dates to the Ancient Egyptian 18th Dynasty and belonged to the "overseer of the granary of the Lord of the Two Lands", Neferhotep. The tomb was visited by the French traveller Frédéric Cailliaud, who copied and published several scenes. Evidently, he saw the tomb in a fairly good condition and was described by others as "superb". The location of the tomb got lost within the Nineteenth century. According to the old drawings published., there are several scenes depicted in the tomb. These include hunting in the marshes, hunting in the desert, banquet scenes, vintage and agriculture and including a scene of making wine.
