New Tomb Discovered in the Valley of the Kings
Institute of Egyptian Art & Archaeology
University of Memphis

The burial chamber holds seven wooden anthropoid ("human-shaped") coffins with painted faces, about twenty pottery jars, and other materials that will come to light as the clearing of the tomb progresses.

I've been a little too vague on the discovery of the tomb, because I wasn't sure what to say and not to say. (In that respect, vagueness is always the way to go!) Basically, the team was excavating the workmen's huts on the west side of KV 10 at the end of last season, and at that point they uncovered three corners of the shaft. That was March 10, 2005. However, I'm not sure that that can be given as the date of discovery, since the Valley is full of such shafts, and many of them are maybe 1 meter deep or peter out or lead to nothing, and there was no guarantee that this shaft wouldn't be the same (did that sentence make sense?). So, this season, we unearthed the workmen's huts (yet again!! took quite a while, let me tell ya!) and found the shaft, and began to work our way down. Then, during the first week in February, we reached the door, and the rest is history!!
