Merit's Beauty Box. Ointments and kohl were regarded as a necessary part of hygiene.

From the tomb of Kha and his wife Merit, Deir el-Medina. This tomb is considered to be the best surviving furnished, non royal tomb from ancient Egypt. Kha was architect of the Pharaoh (Amenhotep II 18th Dynasty) and responsible for building projects not just in the reign of Amenhotep II, but also in the reign of 3 or 4 kings: Tuthmosis III, Amenhotep II, Tuthmosis IV and Amenhotep III The intact tomb was discovered by E. Schiaparelli in 1906. The access shaft to the funerary chamber was neither located in the chapel nor in the courtyard, but at a certain distance from both. The collapse of a nearby Ramesside tomb had hidden it completely, thus preserving the burial intact through the course of 33 centuries. A staircase led to a corridor and ante-chamber. The funerary provisions were placed here because there was no room in the burial chamber itself at the time of the burial. A bed, two baskets, two amphora's and a chair were also in this ante-chamber. The entrance to the funeral chamber was blocked by a heavy wooden door that was closed on the in-side. The chamber itself was rectangular with smooth plastered walls. The great rectangular sarcophagi were inside, placed along the walls and covered with linen sheets. A statue of Kha was on a chair, which stood in front of the sarcophagus of Merit. It was garlanded with flowers. Egyptian Museum, Turin.
