A corridor and possible hidden rooms beyond the walls of the tomb of the Egyptian king: thanks to new geophysical investigations, the archaeologists and technicians who are working in the Valley of the Kings now think that they can reveal new secrets.
New geophysical measurements near Tutankhamun's tomb in Egypt's Valley of the Kings point to previously undiscovered chambers. The data collected suggests that the rock-cut chambers were densely filled with stone blocks even before the young pharaoh's burial, but it is still too early to draw any definitive conclusions.
