An intact tomb has been located in Egypt's Valley of the Kings. This is the first one to be found since King Tut's, discovered in 1922 just a few feet from the current site. Inside are five wooden sarcophagi containing mummies, as well as 20 jars that are still sealed. Most likely the tomb dates from the 18th Dynasty, some 3,500-3,300 years ago.
