List of MMA Tombs

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The list of MMA Tombs includes all tombs excavated by Herbert Eustis Winlock (1884–1950), an archeologist who worked for the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Some of the tombs also have a TT-designation, which refers to their provenience in the Theban Necropolis of Egypt.
