 Tanis   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Tanis, in the eastern Delta, was a capital and necropolis for the kings of the 21st and 22nd dynasties (1069-715 BCE in the Third Intermediate Period) and was a thriving commercial center until the rise of Alexandria under the Ptolemies.
Most commentaries on the intact royal tombs found at Tanis attribute the lack of excitement at their discovery to the overriding concern of World War II–certainly that conflict was more important than ancient Egyptian tombs, no matter how lavish.
But I suspect that the failure of the Tanis finds to compete with the splendors of "King Tut" in later years is due, to some large degree, to their provenance in the Third Intermediate Period in the eastern Delta and not in the New Kingdom at Thebes.

 Tanis - An Abreviated account of Petrie's findings at Tanis
Some suggest that Ramses II could not have reigned after the Libyan period because limestone and pink granite were used in the walls and roof of the tomb of Osorken II and cut sections from his giant colossus in the gateway of Shoshenk III adjacent to the Temple of Amun [10] at Tanis.
In addition, that the only source for limestone at Tanis were prior constructions of Ramses has not been researched adequately to our knowledge.
In support of our suggestion that Psusennes for instance could have changed the name of Ramses II is that he and other 21st Dynasty potentates certainly were active in Tanis as evidenced by the Theban trio of the gods Amun, Mut and Khonsu found at Tanis by Pierre Montet in about 1940.
