Remarks Wall scheme is based on photos from the Giza Archives Project, where the scenes are placed on the West wall. However, according to Porter and Moss these scenes belong to the East wall. Nevertheless based on the depiciton of the owner, who usually looks towards the entrance of the tomb, we place the scenes on the West wall.
