New radar survey of Tutankhamun’s tomb

By Jordi Bou

February 24, 2017 - A rigorous new investigation of Tutankhamun’s tomb using next-generation radar technology will attempt to determine once and for all whether the boy king’s burial site contains hidden chambers, a contentious topic for archaeologists in recent years. The probe into the 3,300-year-old burial by a team from the Polytechnic University of Turin will be the third carried out since 2015.
