The Valley of the Kings By Marie Parsons Geography of the Valley The first king of the New Kingdom, Ahmose of the 18 th Dynasty, built a pyramid-like structure at Abydos , which may or may not have been his original tomb. But all the remaining rulers of the period, except for the so-called Amarna interregnum, had their tombs cut into the rocks of the West Bank at Thebes , specifically at the Valley of the Kings . From Thutmose I in the th Dynasty of the New Kingdom period, all the kings, and occasionally high officials of that period, were buried in the secluded wadi, or dry gully, which today is called Valley of the Kings. The peak known in Arabic as el-Qurn was known in ancient times as dehent , the Horn, and was sacred to the goddesses Hathor and Meretseger , "She who loves Silence." The Valley, known as Biban el-Muluk, "doorway or gateway of the kings," or, the Wadyein , meaning "the two valleys," is actually composed of two separate branches. The main eastern branch, called ta set aat

The Geography and Geology of the Valley of the Kings on the West Bank at Thebes by Jimmy Dunn Geography Thebes was never a perfect position from which to rule Egypt. Perhaps that is why Memphis , even when it was not Egypt's capital, was nevertheless an important administrative center. Thebes really gained its importance as a religious center, along with the fact that it was an ideal location for an ancient Egyptian necropolis. The ancient Egyptians considered the west side of the Nile, was where the sun entered the netherworld, and was thus associated with the afterlife. The flat plain on the West Bank of the Nile River at Thebes stretched from the river to a mountain chain with numerous secluded valleys that threaded through tall, soft stone cliffs. What really made this site perfect was the aspect of mortuary temple and tomb combinations. Ever since the pyramid age, rulers of Egypt built a mortuary temple dedicated to their cult, together with their actual tomb. The West Bank at Thebes provided the flat plain they needed for the temple, while their tombs could be hewn from the limestone of the valleys beyond.

CIES Contacts Dome of the rock Photo courtesy of Veronika Soul The West Bank is a predominantly Arab Palestinian region situated between Jordan and the State of Israel. Deriving its name from its location on the western bank of the Jordan River, the West Bank contains many sites of immense religious importance to Muslims, Jews, and Christians. Although much of the West Bank is under the control of Israel, the Palestinian Authority exercises self-government in several major cities and other portions of the region. Nabi Musa Festival -Photo courtesy of Veronika Soul- Scores of significant archaeological sites are located within the West Bank, as well as a number of cities with deep historical and religious roots such as Hebron, Nablus, Bethlehem, Jericho, and Ramallah. The mineral-rich Dead Sea is located to the southeast and is surrounded by historical sites and nature reserves. The West Bank is 75 percent Muslim (predominantly Sunni), with sizeable Jewish and Christian communities as well. Arabic is the official language of the West Bank, although Hebrew and English are also widely spoken.
