A University of Arizona professor believes they he may have unlocked the riddle of Egyptian Queen Nefertiti's tomb. During scans of King Tut's tomb, the professor believes that he uncovered a hidden chamber that may contain the remains of the notorious Queen Nefertiti. Scientists hypothesize that Tut's tomb was too small to have been originally intended for the young king, and that the original tomb, which was covered up, may have belonged to Nefertiti.
