Tutankhamun's Hideen Rooms
What a wonderful and exciting morning at the Kings Valley. People gathered at the shelter in front of Tutankhamun's tomb KV62. Those people included the Press from BBC TV, National Geographic, French TV and many Newspaper journalists. Then the dignities arrived and everyone got the chance to ask questions and to discuss with Dr. Nicholas Reeves his theories and research. The morning went very well with everyone enjoying the moment and perhaps, all hopping in the realisation of their being at the beginning of something big in history.
We all had the chance to enter the tomb, take photos and to roughly see where the proposed hidden rooms might be according to Dr. Reeves. In the tomb there were many officials, some wearing the SCA (Supreme Council of Antiquities) white coats. These men were mostly in the small anti-chamber to the East of the tomb and the burial chamber where they were checking the laser images against the walls.
Those attending the public relations meeting were, Dr. Mamdouh El-Damaty - Minister of Antiquities, Mohamed Sayed Bard - Governor of Luxor, Ahmed Khalifa - Director of Public Relations, Ahmed Nouby Moussa - SIS (State Information Services Manager and other officials and Directors from different areas.
Dr. Mamdouh El-Damaty, Minster of Antiquities, agrees that Dr. Reeves has found something because they have found already the changes that show us that behind these walls we have to find other chambers, but Nefertiti, "I doubt". He thinks we have another discovery and says, "why not Queen Tiye" (Tut's Mother) It's another theory, or it could be a Prince or another royal member of the family of Tutankhamun. It's a double tomb but which one? Which person? We have to wait until we see the results.
Dr. Nicholas Reeves explains his idea and theory for there being further rooms in Tut's tomb. He says "I go where the evidence takes me" and the evidence at the moment suggests two things, it suggests there may be another doorway behind the West wall of the burial chamber. There may be another doorway behind the North wall. The West wall, if there is a chamber behind the West wall, then that corresponds to a Tutankhamun period storeroom. So there would be another storeroom that has not been discovered before. If there is a chamber behind the North wall, the answer is of who or what is behind it. If you look at the Horemheb tomb KV57, you go down, you reach the well and on the opposite wall, you have a painted decoration, which has been broken down in antiquities time but you can see that the God Horus is cut through, you can see that this original decoration, the entire wall has been a disguise to hide its existence. If I am right, I think this is a similar situation. This is a disguised wall.

A Japanese team will arrive within a few months after permissions are granted from the authorities. They will use GPR (Ground Penetrating Radar) The Japanese Archaeologists have had great success in South America using this method, it was used here in the Kings Valley on KV63. Dr. Mamdouh El-Damaty has promised that on the 4th November, the day the tomb was discovered by Howard Carter, the radar results will be announced.
Dr. Reeves has stated that after his investigation of the tombs ceiling, it shows that it went beyond the North and West walls. He is now convinced his theory of further rooms is correct.

Tutankhamun Tomb - Update

Dear Friends,
28c
Today at 11-am, The Governor Mohamed Sayed Badr, Ministers, Directors, Scientists and Egyptologists arrive at the Tomb KV62.
I arrived just in time to see all the officials and their convoys pass me on my motorbike on the Kings Valley road.
I first met the governor who joked with me saying that he saw me on my motorbike running, I think it must have looked like I was in a hurry to meet up with the party of officials at the tomb.
I spoke to Dr. Nicholas Reeves who told me that the radar would be used at 5-pm tonight when it is quiet and cooler. They want to keep the tomb open during the day for tourists. In the meantime, the radar went into Ramesses II tomb KV5 for what they say is a test run. I believe it also gave them some free radar time to look for any anomalies in there.

People coming out of the East antechamber. Throughout the latest story of this tomb, people have been going in and coming out of this antechamber. As I have never been inside, I can only assume that there is further evidence to support the hidden room. It just, maybe, that they can make further investigation from within this small room that had no decoration in it at all.
