Queen Nefertiti's tomb may be in Tut's tomb

Wow, this is interesting! British archaeologist Nicholas Reeves believes that there are two undiscovered rooms in Tutankhamun's tomb and that Queen Nefertiti is buried in one of them.

Quote:

On Monday, after a group of Egyptian and foreign archaeologists examined the famous tomb, Egypt’s antiquities minister confirmed that they found evidence suggesting the existence of two previously undiscovered rooms. “This indicates that the western and northern walls of Tutankhamun’s tomb could hide two burial chambers,” minister Mamdouh Eldamaty told the Egyptian state press.

Interesting.

I heard about this on the radio a few weeks back and have been awaiting developments; it is exciting for sure.

An interesting development for sure and one I hope bears fruit, makes you wonder what other secrets lie in ancient ruins that we have overlooked in the past that we can now find with modern technology.

The other day it was announced that they might have found a carrack from Henry Vs era, the captured Santa Clara, renamed Holigost. The remains are thought to be not that far from the ruins of the mighty Grace Dieu.

Well I'm agog ! I'd posted ol' Nefertiti (Tut's mother-in-law) in the 'Women you think are beautiful' thread some time ago. They've found every body else!

^Only on my classic 25th aniversary Movado watch!

the sundisk( at 12 o' clock) Aton won the industrial award for designer Nathan Horwitt. Simple cool classic! The god Horus was said to be the sky, he was considered to also contain the sun and moon. It became said that the sun was his right eye, the moon his left.

Horology is the study of time and/or watches; hence the idea for the Movado design...now it's flagship logo. Nuthin' goes outta style BBY!

Should know for sure soon....specialist radar is on its way from Japan to scan the adjoining walls of the tomb.

Amazing that after all these years, there still may be undiscovered rooms in that tomb.

Of course it may turn out to be just a store room where the builders dumped some construction trash.

I hope this doesn't turn out to be like those Spitfires in Burma or the nazi gold train in Poland.

Well, if we've learned anything from Geraldo Rivera, it's never to go tomb raiding on live TV.

My money is on finding the Irish Hide and Seek champion circa 1331 BC.
