Egypt says 90 percent chance of hidden rooms in Tut tomb

CAIRO (AP) — Egypt says there is a 90 percent chance that hidden chambers will be found within King Tutankhamun's tomb, based on the preliminary results of a new exploration of the 3,300-year-old mausoleum.
Speaking at a press conference in Luxor on Saturday, Antiquities Minister Mamdouh el-Damaty said the results will be sent to Japan for a monthlong analysis before the search is resumed.
British Egyptologist Nicholas Reeves theorizes that Tutankhamun, better known as King Tut, who died at the age of 19, may have been rushed into an outer chamber of what was originally Queen Nefertiti's tomb.
Famed for her beauty, Nefertiti was the subject of a famous 3,300-year-old bust.

Except to compare that Ben is the opposite of what historical accounts write about what Jesus said or did.
As someone said, "Ben is a self-made man and enamored with his creator."
Judging from what we've seen of his basement, it is more of a shrine to himself than to Jesus.

there are miles of tunnels in some of these complexes, and some of them have collapsed ... wouldn't want to be down there when that happened. 
I suspect they'd find even more stuff. And not just in the existing and known ruins, but under the sand. An old shuttle flight (with similar tech aboard) proved that there are ancient riverbeds under the Sahara. So, what's taking us so long to use this technology and find all of the world's archaeological sites, including in Egypt? 
Amazing what they can do with math.
we sat through an entire hour of tedious footage watching a little remote controlled robot navigate through tiny pyramid passageways to find absolutely NOTHING. Well, there was a nail and they made a big deal out of that. 
So we weren't the only ones! That particular show gets mentioned frequently around here and that was when WE also quit watching programs like that.
Or anything about Egypt antiquities with this self-promoting grifter in it. Most programs with Zahi Hawass are opportunities to showcase Hawass and the government's official version of history.
