On September 17, 2026, a team of researchers published a study on Tutankhamun's tomb (KV62) that has reopened one of the great debates in Egyptology. After seven field seasons since 2015 and two new seasons in 2023 and 2024, combining ground-penetrating radar, electrical resistivity tomography, and more than 1,200 microgravimetric readings, they detected low-density areas with right angles behind the north wall of the burial chamber, a possible passageway about two meters wide, and a network of anomalies 25-30 meters to the north.
In this documentary, we review the entire story with the facts at hand: why Tutankhamun's tomb is so small for a pharaoh, the "phantom doors" that Nicholas Reeves saw beneath the paint in 2015, the Nefertiti hypothesis, the radar race (the Japanese "90%" scan, the second study that didn't confirm it, and the 2018 analysis by the Polytechnic University of Turin that found no chambers), the new study by Eldamaty, Abbas, Ballard, and Reeves, and Zahi Hawass's counterarguments.
As always on this channel, we separate what is documented, what is debated, and what is speculation. The authors themselves acknowledge that their results are suggestive but not conclusive and that they don't prove Nefertiti's presence.
Do you think they should install a camera to look behind the north wall? Let me know in the comments.
