Archaeologists unveil newest Egyptian tomb
Archaeologists today fully unveiled the first tomb discovered in Egypt’s Valley of the Kings in over 80 years, and cracked open the last of seven sarcophagi inside to reveal embalming materials and jewellery.
“This is even better than finding a mummy – it’s a treasure,” said chief curator Nadia Lokma, beaming at the sarcophagus packed with fragile remains that would crumble into dust if touched.
