Tomb KV1, located in the Valley of the Kings in Egypt, was used for the burial of Pharaoh Ramesses VII of the Twentieth Dynasty. Although it has been open since antiquity, it was only properly investigated and cleared by Edwin Brock in 1984 and 1985.

Brock continued excavation work within the tomb, and by 1995, the tomb's walls had been completely cleaned, covering graffiti left there in ancient times, a constant problem faced by excavators of tombs within the Valley. The single corridor tomb itself is located in Luxor's West Bank, and is considered small in comparison to other tombs of the twentieth dynasty.
