Click here to read the complete description of the tomb.
This tour will provide a unique experience, allowing you to navigate your way around the rooms and the corridors, as in a video game. It requires a small VRML browser plug-in (for Internet Explorer, Firefox, Google Chrome or Safari) in order to view the 3D model.
The downloadable "CORTONA 3D" plug-in is recommended, free on ParallelGraphics. The procedure of installation is automatic.
The software is intuitive after some trial runs, but a help page is available in the Cortona User Guide.
Also, when using the "Cortona" plug-in, right click and select help.
An alternate, "COSMO", VRML plug-in is available from N.I.S.T..

NOTE:
To reach the chamber below the first left annexe:
On entering the annexe of the "pillared hall", you will see an arrow on the wall (placed there by me).
If you stand directly in front of the arrow, you will drop into the chamber below.
Tour the chamber and head back out, towards the up arrow.
To leave: either use "fly" and "pan" or select the "First Left Annexe (out)" view.
The Well Shaft can be descended, but finding out how is up to you.
