This is the first time archaeologists found a royal tomb since the discovery of King Tutankhamun’s tomb in 1922.

The unearthing of the tomb of ancient Egyptian King Thutmose II is being described as one of the most important archaeological discoveries in recent years.

In the shadow of Luxor’s sun-baked cliffs, where the Nile’s ancient whispers still echo, archaeologists have cracked open a tomb hidden for 3,500 years. Hidden beneath rubble and flood-swept silt, the long-lost tomb of King Thutmose II—a lesser-known pharaoh overshadowed by his legendary family—has finally been found.
