Antiquities Minister Mamdouh el-Damati will announce a new archaeological discovery on Luxor's west bank Thursday. He will also open the TT 110 tomb after it is completely restored.
Mostafa Waziry, general manager of Luxor's antiquities, said tomb TT 110 dates back to the 18th dynasty. “It was built for Djehuty, a senior statesman under Queen Hatshepsut and Tuthmosis III,” he explained, adding that the tomb was restored by the American ARCE Research Center.
He also said that tests will continue in Tutankhamun's tomb to search for a hidden chamber behind the walls.
