The moment
The craftsmen who cut and painted the royal tombs in the Valley of the Kings lived in a walled village whose ostraca, papyri and stelae record the religion of ordinary people. They prayed to Meretseger, the cobra goddess of the peak above the valley, and venerated the deified king Amenhotep I and his mother Ahmose-Nefertari, whose oracle gave judgments in the village court.
People: Amenhotep I, Ahmose-Nefertari
