Note
"The necropolis of Draʻ Abu el-Naga´ (Arabic: دراع ابو النجا‎) is located on the West Bank of the Nile at Thebes, Egypt, just by the entrance of the dry bay that leads up to Deir el-Bahari and north of the necropolis of el-Assasif. The necropolis is located near the Valley of the Kings.

It was probably used as a royal Necropolis for the pharaohs of the Seventeenth Dynasty and contains the possible tomb of Amenhotep I, Tomb ANB.

It was also used as a cemetery for officials of the New Kingdom administration in Thebes.

During the Coptic eras, a monastery, Deir el-Bakhît, identified as the historical Theban Monastery of Saint, Paulos was built on the hilltop above the pharaonic cemetery." - (en.wikipedia.org 22.09.2020)
