Nefertiti and Tutankhamun

Tutankhamun's tomb may soon reveal its final mystery. British Egyptologist Nicholas Reeves has been invited to Egypt the Egyptian Antiquities Ministry to debate his new theory that Nefertiti's tomb is located in a room leading off from Tutankhamun's burial chamber.

It is also possible that there may be a joint expedition to Luxor, where the 18th Dynasty Tutankhamun's tomb is located. Reeves believes that high resolution images show Tut's tomb might have two unexplored doorways. He tinks that Tut, who died suddenly at the age of 19, may have been rushed into an outer chamber of Nefertiti's original tomb.

However some archeologists believe the mummy of Nefertiti has already been found in a different tomb. The possibility that Nefertiti could be buried alongside Tutankhamun and that the two share the same tomb has already caused international excitement.
