Nah!!! His wife took everything, including his job as pharaoh. 😉 |

A longstanding mystery solved. Some experts felt the lost tomb must be somewhere in the Valley of the Kings but in The Complete Valley of the Kings Reeves and Wilkinson argued at this period it was entirely possible it was outside the valley and mentioned the Theban necropolis at Dier el-Bahri as a possibilty. |

At least he got custody of the family goose!*
*According to Wikipedia, a goose skeleton and goose eggs were found in one of his funerary chests.

Hatshepsut? Does the find give us any new historical info? |

Correct, she was one of them, but she made herself pharaoh instead of regent for her son. Why I said his wife took everything. 😉 As far as finding anything important, time will tell. Loads of damage by floods. But first Royal tomb found since Tut. |

Further report on this from few days later – they "think" they've got the second tomb (never heard that in egyptology before?!) link |
