This paper deals with one of the consequences of the tomb robberies that took place at the end of the 20th Dynasty for the New Kingdom pharaohs, namely reusing the coffins, sarcophagi, and other funerary equipment to face the high cost of (re)burial. Where the high priests of Amun assigned inspection teams to the tombs to restore the violated mummies and rewrap them with new linen and finally move them to the caches to prevent the recurrence of thefts. They gave their orders to repair their coffins, which were roughly damaged, and then reuse them. Explaining the reasons for the robberies in the first place and then the reasons for the reusing and how the temple dealt with it
