Pharaoh Ramses IX was the eighth ruler of the Twentieth Dynasty in the New Kingdom Period of Ancient Egypt. He re-established stability in the country after the chaotic period following the death of Ramses VI. According to Papyrus Turin, Ramses IX reigned for 18 years and 4 months and died in year 19 of his reign. His tomb ( KV 6 ) is the first tomb that had been opened since antiquity, and dozens of inscriptions in the tomb were left by ancient visitors. This tomb was the last royal tomb to be dug in the Valley of the Kings in Luxor. The tomb has a simple plan, influenced in its early stages by the Tomb of Ramses III ( KV 11 ). In addition to this, the tomb has much in common with the Tomb of Ramses VI ( KV 9 ) from a decorative and archaeological standpoint. The size of the tomb is average for royal tombs in spite of its abbreviated plan, but the dimensions of its gates and corridors are the widest in the Valley.
