So I was watching this thing on Rameses the Great, earlier... They mentioned the tomb he'd built for his sons, and just how big it was.

So I hopped online when I got home, and did some Googling. I found my way to this site: Theban Mapping Project. Poking around a bit further, I found a pdf of the tomb's layout, located on this page. Since the details are a bit sparse, I went back to Google, eventually finding a page with a more detailed map and some descriptions.

I know it's not Realms-specific, but I can easily see it being modified for a DM's use -- particularly in the Mulhorandi area.

Just to give you an idea, measurements with some approximation tell me that the map is 260ft by 160ft, with several 10'x5' and 10'x10' rooms... It just needs an orc and a pie.

Nice find! I've been looking for a good map for my next Anauroch desert encounter, this will make for a perfect Baelnorn tomb.

Love it... I got a party going to Anauroch in the coming session. This map will be a great asset to that adventure. Good job Wooly.
