The 3,000-year-old burial chamber was the most complete ever discovered, and is generally regarded as the most significant archaeological find of that century. But now scientists might be on the brink of another incredible find, as more evidence is found to support the idea that there might be a second burial chamber hidden behind the one that held Tutankhamun’s remains.
