The cooridor opens into an irregularly cut room. through which the stairwall descends to the burial chamber. This cartouche-shaped room is of substential size, being about 11 m in length, and has a small, roughly cut storage opening on the left side near the sarcophagus and canopic enplacement. Originally a single square pillar stood at the centre of this room, though this is now broken and no longer visible.Victor Loret was founded a yellow quartize sarcophagus inscribed for Tuthmosis I (now in Cairo). The mummy of Tuthmosis I was transferred from KV20 by Tuthmosis III to KV38 and removed from it. Sometimes identified as Tuthmosis I discovered in DB320.
