Are we close to finding the Tomb of Queen Nefertiti?
In May 2018, media outlets around the world ran the headline: “Secret Chamber Does Not Exist”, referring to the possible burial chamber of Queen Nefertiti behind the walls of the tomb of King Tutankhamun in the Valley of the King's in Egypt.

So you’ll image my surprise when this week I see that the major media outlets across the world are once again reporting that Nefertiti could be hiding behind a wall in King Tutankhamen’s tomb.
The story was ran by a number of well known publications, including The Sun, New York Post, Fox News and more, but why have Egyptologists continued to search the walls of the boy king's tomb when the results were conclusive only last year?
Well, it appears the mainstream media have gotten this all wrong. Archaeologists do believe they are closing in on the tomb of Queen Nefertiti, wife of Pharaoh Akhenaten, but not via a false wall in the tomb of the 18th Dynasty King. Watch now to learn more.
