For the first time in over a century, a royal Egyptian tomb has been uncovered by archaeologists. The tomb was uncovered in 2022, but has only now been confirmed as the final resting place of King Thutmose II.

An Egyptian-British archaeological mission has found the tomb of King Thutmose II, who ruled ancient Egypt about 3,500 years ago, Egypt's Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities said Tuesday. It was the final undiscovered royal tomb of Egypt's 18th dynasty and the first burial chamber of a pharaoh unearthed since Tutankhamun was discovered in 1922.
