I wanted to ask you something. Which is... what's your name?
This article title is conjecture. Although the article subject is canon, no official name for it has been given.
"The tomb appears to have been only recently opened by the Sect. It extends deep beneath the sand, and has probably lain undisturbed for centuries."
―A Hidden One about the tomb, 46 BCE.[src]-[m]
Tomb of White Desert

The Tomb of White Desert is a tomb in Egypt.[1]

History[edit | edit source]

After Bayek of Siwa slew the of Order of the Ancients member Medunamun in 48 BCE,[2] the priest Menkhtu began posing as a returned Medunamun and founded the Sect of the Ibis Reborn. Seeking to uncover another relic of power like the Apple the late Oracle of Amun possessed,[3] he instructed the sect to begin uncovering various tombs in the White Desert.[1]

In 46 BCE, soon after the foundation of the Hidden Ones,[4] Bayek sent a group of his disciples to Haueris Nome in pursuit of Menkhtu, and though they found only a decoy there,[5] their scouts managed to track down a number of sect members in the White Desert. They bypassed the sect's guards at the tomb's entrance and delved within, hoping to find the Ibis Reborn.[1] The Hidden Ones explored the tomb, finding three people dressed like the Ibis Reborn, though these were also decoys. Piecing together their last words, the Hidden Ones learned that the Ibis Reborn had accessed the Gizan vault Khesesh Em Sesh Em Eeneb under the Great Pyramid and gave chase.[6]
