Archaeologists in Egypt discovered two secret chambers in King Tutankhamun's tomb in the Valley of the Kings at Luxor and are theorizing that one could be the resting place of Queen Nefertiti, as reported in this HNGN article.

Nicholas Reeves, a British archaeologist, is first to present the possibility of two hidden doorways behind Tutankhamun's burial chamber, leading to two undiscovered rooms, one of which, he also believes, holds the 3,000-year-old corpse of Nefertiti, who died at the age of 19, according to BBC.

Reeves and a group of experts have already entered the burial chambers to start testing out the theory using radar equipment.

"I had no preconceived notion that Nefertiti was buried here. To be honest, for some time, I fought the conclusion because it seemed so extraordinary. But that is where the evidence seems to be pointing," said Reeves, according to CNN.

Kara Cooney, a University of California-Los Angeles archaeologist who has written about one of the most successful female ruler of Egypt - Queen Hatshepsut - finds Reeves' theory promising.

"These strange tell-tale markers make Nicholas Reeves say that something else is going on. Maybe it belongs to somebody else. Maybe it belongs to Nefertiti," said Cooney, USA Today reports.

Archaeologists are saying that this discovery could be as great as the discovery of King Tut's tomb.
