Description
The Tomb-chapels of Paser and Ra'ia (also known as Pay and Raia) are located at Saqqâra, an ancient necropolis south of Cairo, and contain the burials of a family that spanned generations. The tomb was originally built for Pay during the reign of Tutankhamun and was later expanded by his son Ra'ia, with the family using it until the reign of Ramesses II.
