English archeologist Dr. Nicholas Reeves of the University of Arizona claims that the tomb of Tutankhamun hides a secret that has eluded researchers since its discovery more than 90 years ago. Reeves said that he has found a secret doorway leading from the tomb of King Tutankhamun to the boy-king’s mother, Nefertiti.

After examining digital scans of the walls of Tutankhamun’s tomb in the Valley of the Kings, Dr. Reeves said that one of the doorways leads to a little-used storeroom, but the other on the north side leads to the “undisturbed burial” of the tomb’s rightful owner, who he believes is the powerful ancient queen.

According to Reeve’s theory, the room containing the boy-king’s body that was discovered by Howard Carter in 1922 is an antechamber to that of glamorous Nefertiti. If this is the case, it would answer some questions about King Tutankhamun’s tomb that have puzzled archeologists for years, such as the small size and second-hand artefacts.

Despite Nefertiti’s mythical power, nobody is sure where he has been buried with speculation that she may have been buried in Armana, the capital city established by her husband around 250 miles north of the Valley of Kings.
