This is very interesting news (http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20060209/od_uk_nm/oukoe_uk_science_egypt_mummies;_ylt=ApE8nJGQRX8ZQEFCR4w_Vm.s0NUE;_ylu=X3oDMTA3NW1oMDRpBHNlYwM3NTc-).

It's the first time they've discovered an intact tomb in the Valley of the Kings since Tutankhamun's tomb was discovered in 1922. It will be very cool to see what is inside!

Here's another link to the story -- this time with PICTURES and VIDEO! (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/4700032.stm) Woot!

One of the speculations is that this might be Nefertiti's tomb. They know it's a woman anyways.

Very cool indeed. I did Egyptology for a bit, I'd kill for a chance to go inside!
