Tutankhamun's tomb hides no secret chamber


The Egyptian Ministry of Antiquities announced that Tutankhamun's tomb does not conceal any secret chamber or empty space.

The Egyptian Ministry of Antiquities in Cairo announced through a press conference that there are no secret chambers in Tutankhamun’s tomb.

The announcement was made after a campaign of measurements carried out by researchers in Archaeo-Physics at the Polytechnic University of Turin: the measurements were carried out through geo-radar, an instrument capable of making waves penetrate the ground to detect possible empty spaces and hidden corridors.

The hypothesis had been advanced by British Egyptologist Nicholas Reeves; he had also thought that the pharaoh’s tomb might have been part of a larger tomb belonging to Nefertiti.
