Abstract
Against the background of KV 63's discovery, evidence for embalming caches of the New Kingdom, both inside and outside the Valley of the Kings, is summarily reviewed. Analysis of the location of those in KV 36, KV 46, and the chamber with the burial of Senenmut's parents below his tomb (TT 71) suggests that all three may represent reburials. A survey of earlier and later embalming caches leads to the rejection of arguments for proposing a connection between them and G 7000x, the so-called tomb of Queen Hetepheres I.
