KV62 KV62 KV62 is the standard Egyptological designation for the tomb of the young pharaoh Tutankhamun in the Valley of the Kings, now renowned for the wealth of valuable antiquities it contained. The tomb was discovered in 1922 by Howard Carter, underneath the remains of workmen's huts built during the Ramesside Period; this explains why it was largely spared from desecration and from the tomb clearances at the end of the 20th Dynasty, although the tomb was robbed and resealed twice in the period after its completion. The tomb was densely packed with items in great disarray, partly due to its
Shaft and chamber tomb shafts, with a square chamber at the bottom of each shaft. Another shaft and chamber tomb is the Tomb of Osiris. Originally discovered in the 1880s, it was cursorily sketched by a Spanish-Italian unit the help of the Egyptian Ministry of Antiquities, which excavated the tomb further. Some say that this tomb dates back to 760-525 BC. It is hard to quite put an exact date but researchers were able to narrow it down by similar tombs. The Tomb of Osiris has three major shafts and eight chambers. Western Mexico and Central American Tombs The Tombs of Western Mexico and
