The Thebes, Egypt, Theban Tomb TT32 is located in El-Khokha, part of the Theban Necropolis, on the west bank of the Nile, opposite to Luxor. It is the burial place of the ancient Egyptian official, Djehutymose. Djehutymose (or Tuthmose) was a chief steward of Amun and overseer of the granaries of Upper and Lower Egypt during the reign of Ramesses II (Nineteenth dynasty of Egypt, 19th Dynasty). His wife Esi (Isis) is shown in the hall and the passage of the tomb. It was later used by the Roman Soter family for burials in the first and second centuries CE.

A thousand funerary statues were also discovered at the site.
