Just heard about this on BBC news! This is the first tomb discovery since King Tut. After visiting the Valley of the Kings last year, I can't wait to hear more! I know they were saying at the time that they were always finding new areas of interest and had in fact uncovered a new temple a year before. The interesting comment for me was that if they didn't keep the sites clear, they would all disappear under the sand agin in a matter of years! I wonder what else is hidden under that evermoving desert?

I am an Egypt fan, I was there last year, too! Great to hear the good news, it's amazing! I wonder what else can be under the sand.

Thank you a lot for sharing.

Actually, this new one has gotta be Jimmy... according to the BBC..

"The sarcophagi were buried rapidly in the small tomb for an unknown reason."

...concrete shoes are probably much less effective in the desert... even with Red Bull..
