CAIRO, Egypt (Reuters) -- An American team has found what appears to be an intact tomb in the Valley of the Kings, the first found in the valley since that of Tutankhamun in 1922, one of the archaeologists said on Thursday.

The tomb contains five or six mummies in intact sarcophagi from the late 18th dynasty, about the same period as Tutankhamun, but the archaeologists have not yet had the time or the access to identify them, the archaeologist added.

That is interesting. I wondered if the plunderers had missed few. I hope Nationa Geographic is on top of it. I can't wait to read all about it in my Doctor's office in 5 years.

Nifty. I wonder how long it's going to take all the archaeologists to die off this time.
