King Tut Tomb Fetuses May Reveal Pharaoh's Mother - Egypt Mummies Moved for DNA Tests; Pharaoh Among Them? - March 30, 2009—Researchers may have finally come face-to-face with the real—and wrinkled—Nefertiti, thanks to sophisticated CT scanning technology. A carefully carved limestone face in the inner core of the Egyptian queen's famous bust (above, right) has emerged in new images, a new study says. The object, currently on display in Berlin's Altes Museum, was discovered in 1912 during an excavation of the studio of Egyptian royal sculptor Thutmose. The artist had sculpted Nefertiti—wife of Pharaoh Akhenaten—more than 3,300 years ago.
Items dating more than 40 centuries old from King Tut's tomb are currently on display in a museum in Germany.
