The paper presents ancient dipinti, both hieroglyphic and hieratic, traced in the relieving chamber above the Bark Hall of the Hatshepsut temple in Deir el-Bahari. The material is linked mainly to a group of builders, most probably draftsmen, engaged in the building operations at the site of the temple.

The representations of all the gods on the western wall of the Portico of Obelisks in Hatshepsut’s temple at Deir el-Bahari were destroyed during the Amarna period and restored under the reign of Ramesses II. In this paper, the inscriptions related to those restorations are commented on, along with a set of dipinti drawn on undecorated blocks below the dado lines. Those dipinti, of varying quality, represent the god Amun. Because of their location and form they were probably ‘restoration guidelines’ for the sculptors re-creating the destroyed images of the god. The paper’s aim is to reconfirm the dating of the restorations in this part of the temple and discuss the possible reasons for the dipinti creation.

Reusage was a common phenomenon in the ancient world. Throughout the history of Egypt, from the very early beginnings until modern times, tombs, temples, quarries or loose architectural elements were adapted for new purposes. The Temple of Hatshepsut in Deir el-Bahari (Upper Egypt) was no exception. Our knowledge about the Graeco-Roman to Late Antique periods comes mainly from the movable artefacts such as ostraka, papyri and secondary epigraphy preserved on the walls. In 2018, an attempt was made to recapture the faint, but still noticeable, drawings and texts left there by monks and Christian visitors. Contrary to previous studies, a more contextual approach was applied in the course of this re-examination.

The article provides an overview of the history of the Valley of the Kings following its abandonment as a royal necropolis at the end of the New Kingdom and the dismant ling and caching of the royal mummies in the Twenty-First Dynasty and early Twenty-Second Dynasty. The valley was subsequently used for non-royal burials of individuals of lower rank throughout the Third Interme - diate Period. After centuries of neglect during the Late Period, interest from visitors from all corners of the ancient world surged in Ptolemaic and especially Roman times. In Late Antiquity the valley hosted a small Christian community which reused a few tombs as lodgings and for their own religious purposes.
