Recreating Karakhamun’s Second Pillared Hall | South Asasif Conservation Project Blog

Image008Recreating Karakhamun’s Second Pillared Hall | South Asasif Conservation Project Blog: The reconstruction of the Second Pillared Hall of the tomb of Karakhamun is one of goals of the 2015 season. This work has already been going on for a number of years but now with our new stonecutting machine continuously cutting blocks for pillars and slabs for walls we believe in the success of this ambitious plan. The Second Pillared Hall is the least-preserved room in the tomb of Karakhamun. Used for years as a quarry it did not have left much in situ when we finished its excavation in 2010.
