Ramses II built her the most beautiful and largest tomb in The Valley of The Queens, her tomb is a true example of masterful decorations and a pure reflection of the importance of women during the ancient Egyptian civilization. It was decorated in enchanting colors and well-preserved wall paintings of her usual daily life, poetry, and holy text from the book of the dead. Her mummy and sarcophagus were stolen by tomb raiders but the Egyptian museum still contains some remains of her tomb.
