...y'know, because only Egyptians hand picked Zahi Hawass are trained in excavation techniques.

Modesty prevents me from stating my usual wholehearted agreement, but I will say that I have a great deal of gratitude for the FReepers (especially Blam) who contribute almost all of the topics that GGG pings. Hey, look what I just noticed on indcons' FR profile page...

My nerd score is 62. This is shocking as I always thought of myself as super cool. I am crushed! /S
Bless Blam for all of his wonderful contributions to this list. Happy holidays to all!

KV 39 (Amenhetep I (?))
Theban Mapping Project
http://www.thebanmappingproject.com/sites/browse_tomb_853.html
"Weigall's description of the tomb suggests that some decoration remained intact at the time of his entry. All traces of decoration were obliterated by the time Rose cleared the tomb. Weigall based his belief that the tomb belonged to Amenhetep I on perceived similarities of position between KV 39 and that described for Amenhetep I's tomb in the tomb robbery papyri... There appear to have been three construction phases, suggested by differences in architectural typology and the orientation of component groups. Entryway A, corridor B1, and chamber C1 and its descent would have been cut first, and suggest a date in the first half of Dynasty 18. Following a southward extension at the end of the corridor B1, two other complexes of corridors and stairs leading to burial chambers were cut to the south and to the east, although it is not certain in which order these were done."
