Once again, the question seeks an answer: Is there a secret chamber inside what is arguably the world's most famous tomb?

Later this month, a team of Italian researchers is expected to enter the tomb of the boy-king Tutankhamun in Egypt's famed Valley of the Kings. Once inside, they will use state-of-the-art radar technology, capable of viewing through 32 feet of solid rock.

Their goal is to find what is believed to be a legendary lost chamber inside the king's 3,300-year-old resting place.

"It will be a rigorous scientific work and will last several days, if not weeks," Franco Porcelli, the project's director, told Seeker, a science news service. "Who knows what we might find as we scan the ground," he added.
