This blog reported months ago about studies of anomalies in the tomb of Tut-ankh-Amoun leading to speculations that there were previously undiscovered chambers attached to Tut’s own burial chamber, some theorizing that one of these could hold the remains of Queen Nefertiti — that Tut was buried in a spare front room of her burial complex. The Daily Mail now reports on the latest developments in this story
“Following months of investigations, researchers studying King Tutankhamun’s tomb believe there is a 90% chance it does contain at least one, if not two, hidden chambers.
“Radar scans of the tomb in the ancient necropolis of Luxor have revealed two possible rooms, and they’re likely to contain remains believed to belong to Queen Nerfertiti, Egypt’s antiquities minister Mamdouh el-Damaty said.
“If confirmed, Mr El-Damaty added ‘it could be the discovery of the century’ and that it’s ‘very important for Egyptian history and the history of the world’.”
