This tomb was certainly made for a royalty, but it is
unfinished and uninscribed . It consists of a rough flight of steps, a sloping
passage, a small chamber, and the oval burial-hall, with two pillars .

KV38 – Tomb of Tuthmosis I .. Part ( 20 )
From the point of view of history, this tomb is the most important in
the valley, as it was the one which set the fashion of such interments . It
lies on the west side of the valley close to the tomb of Tausert and Setnakht (
KV14 ) and between it and that of Seti II ( KV15 ) .
