The Tomb of Pennut in Nubia is a rock-cut building sculpted during Egypt's late New Kingdom and in memory of a mighty provincial administrator. Interred away near the Amada and Derr temples, it was moved carefully in the 1960s to protect it from the waters of Lake Nasser. This colossal tomb illustrates the ways in which ancient Egyptian provincial administrators had a fusion of political and religious duties. If you enjoy discovering lesser-visited attractions like the Tomb of Aniba, this destination will fascinate you.
