Hieroglyphics hidden in the tomb of Egyptian Pharaoh Tutankhamen have strengthened the belief that the tomb could contain a door to the tomb of Egyptian Queen Nefertiti, according to a world-renowned British Egyptologist.
Cartouches depicting Tutankhamen, known in the modern world as King Tut, being buried by his successor Ay were painted over cartouches of Tutankhamen burying Nefertiti, according to Nicholas Reeves, a former curator in the British Museum’s Department of Egyptian Antiquities.“Close inspection of Ay’s cartouches reveals clear, underlying traces of an earlier name — that of Tutankhamen," Reeves told the Guardian.
On the tomb's north wall, the cartouches depict Ay holding a ceremonial adze and performing the “opening the mouth” ritual of the mummy that would restore Tut's five senses.
