Damati heads to Luxor to announce results of Nefertiti tomb exploration

Minister of Antiquities Mamdouh el Damati headed Saturday to Luxor to announce the results of the final inspection of the Tutankhamun tomb, amid searching for the Nefertiti grave.

British Egyptologist Nicholas Reeves has supposed that Nefertiti tomb was lying behind the walls of the Tutankhamun tomb in West Bank, Luxor.

Reeves believes Tutankhamun's mausoleum was originally occupied by Nefertiti, who was believed to be his step-mother and that she has lain undisturbed behind what he believes is a partition wall for over 3,000 years.
