Renowned Egyptian archaeologist Dr Zahi Hawass has claimed "this will not be the last one", as experts announced the discovery of a second tomb belonging to King Thutmose II. The remarkable find comes just days after archaeologists unearthed the pharaoh's first tomb in Egypt's Theban Necropolis.

The historically important reveal is said to mark the end of a search for the lost tombs of the kings of ancient Egypt’s Eighteenth Dynasty — which ran from approximately 1550 BC to 1292 BC. The finding comes more than one hundred years after King Tut’s remains were discovered in 1922, CBS News reported.
