The tomb of Thutmose II, a pharaoh who ruled Egypt about 3,500 years ago, has been discovered west of the Valley of the Kings. The discovery is the last of the lost tombs of the kings of ancient Egypt's 18th Dynasty,

The ministry of antiquities said the discovery of the tomb of Thutmose II, whose wife, Hatshepsut, took the throne after his death, was the first excavation of a royal tomb near the Valley of the Kings since 1922.

But that doesn’t make the discovery of his final resting place any less important. On February 18, the Egyptian government announced that an international team of archeologists have finally confirmed the tomb’s location—making it the first and most significant royal find since the identification of King Tutankhamun’s tomb in 1922.
