Template:Short description Template:Infobox Egyptian tomb KV38 is an ancient Egyptian tomb located in the Valley of the Kings in Egypt. It was used for the reburial of Pharaoh Thutmose I of the Eighteenth Dynasty, and was where his body was removed to (from KV20) by Thutmose III before ultimately being relocated to the Royal Cache, located in Deir el-Bahri, during the Third Intermediate Period of Egypt.

On fragments of the background of the burial chamber, it was discovered that the tomb also contained portions of the Amduat, a funerary text commonly found in royal tombs of the period intended to guide deceased royalty through the afterlife.[1]
