Archaeologists on the Brink of Unveiling Second Lost Pharaoh’s Tomb

British archaeologist Piers Litherland made headlines last week for discovering the long-lost tomb of Pharaoh Thutmose II in Egypt’s Theban mountains, but now he believes another hidden burial site is waiting to be uncovered. His team found evidence suggesting that Queen Hatshepsut, the pharaoh’s wife and successor, may have moved his remains and burial goods to a second concealed tomb.

The suspected tomb is buried under 23 meters of man-made limestone rubble and plaster, a deliberate effort by ancient builders to protect it from floods and grave robbers. Litherland and his team have been carefully removing the layers by hand, with hopes of reaching the tomb in the next month.

The first tomb, discovered in 2022, was completely empty, leading experts to believe Thutmose II’s true burial chamber remains hidden. If confirmed, this would be one of the most significant discoveries in modern Egyptology, potentially unveiling untouched burial artifacts from 3,500 years ago.
