Archaeologists have discovered the likely burial place of Queen Nefertiti

A team of archaeologists has uncovered new evidence of hidden spaces behind the walls of Tutankhamun's tomb in the Valley of the Kings. Theoretically, it could be the burial place of Queen Nefertiti, Belta writes.

According to Bild, to analyze the area around the 3400-year-old tomb for the first time in the history of studying this place, scientists used gravimetric surveying. Particular attention should be paid to a possible corridor with a width of about 2 meters, which departs from the burial chamber of Tutankhamun. Geophysicist George Ballard estimates that the room may be filled with debris, so previous research may not have found it.

The most mysterious find is called Anomaly 7. Measurements indicate a region with a reduced density, inside which there is a nearly square object with a higher density. Ballard suggests there may be a cell with funerary objects.

At the same time, scientists note that one hundred percent evidence of the existence of premises is not yet available. The results are at the limit of the method’s capabilities, so more research is needed.

At the same time, the new data updated the previously proposed theory of the British Egyptologist Nicholas Reeves. The scientist since 2015 admits that behind the tomb of Tutankhamun may be a larger complex associated with Nefertiti. The tomb of the Queen has not yet been found. New dimensions can play a crucial role in solving the mystery.
