KV 64 Found?
The web is abuzz over the possibility that a tomb has been found in the Valley of Kings on the path leading to the tomb of Tuthmosis III. The reports are as yet unconfirmed though this article claims a Swiss mission lead by Dr. Gross is saying it is true.
I found this article at Jane Akshar's Luxor News and though the original article is in Arabic with typically poor translation but it can be read through the lines.
