KV5
Items: 14
Kills: 4
Within the Valley of the Kings at Luxor, you will find the tombs of many Egyptian kings. Each tomb that has been found is identified by a code. The site you have arrived at is KV5.
Sights to See
 Between the West Valley and the Valley of the Kings, there are more than sixty tombs of Egptian Kings. Each excavated tomb is designated by a two letter code (either WV, for tombs in the West Valley, or KV for tombs located in the East Valley). The two letter codes are followed by a number to uniquely identify each excavation site.

The valley is small, surrounded by steep cliffs, and easily guarded. The local limestone, cut millions of years ago by torrential rains to form the Valley. KV5 is one of the more extensively studied sites and is believed to have been the burial site of Ramsees II.

The valley surrounding KV5 has steep limestone rock faces, and the waters that formed the valley have formed a natural road through the valley, but it also appears to have created many deep pits. Do be careful when driving through the valley near KV5.
Locals
 Once again, there isn't much indigenous wildlife to spot in this arid desert, however, do watch out for the locals. As we've warned you before, they're not a friendly lot.
Souvenirs
There's little of value to be found in the valley surrounding KV5.
Hidden Treasures
 There are four secrets to be found. The first can be easliy seen if you don't drive too fast. The second is also in plain sight, so long as you can figure out how to get to it. The third can be easily missed, because you'll be busy dealing with other, more pressing, issues. The location of the final secret is farily obvious if are the kind of person who leaves no stone, or rocky wall, unturned.
Hazards
 The mostly likely hazzard in KV5 will be driving the Jeep over the edge of a pit. There's very little reason to rush through KV5, so take it slow. The only time you should need to put the pedal to the metal is when trying to run down a mercenary.
