Amarna Tomb 1 is a sepulchre near Amarna, Upper Egypt. It is the tomb of the ancient Egyptian noble Huya, which is located in the cluster of tombs known collectively as the Northern tombs. Amarna Tomb 1 is important because its tomb scenes "are of particular historical importance. Two unusual themes occur. One concerns the presence at el-Amarna of Queen Tiye, Akhenaten’s mother" while another scene "records a public reception of foreign tribute" (the so-called 'Royal Durbar of Year 12) of Akhenaten, of which another version appears in the adjacent tomb Amarna Tomb 2 (of Meryre II)." The other version survives in the tomb of Meryre II and is accompanied by a text--(Year 12, Month 6, Day 8).
