The veteran archaeologist also announced that after 12 years of excavations at the Temple of Taposiris Magna in Alexandria, there is no evidence to claim that Cleopatra was buried in that location, claiming that it is likely that Queen Cleopatra was rather buried in the tomb made next to the temple and is now under water.
In 2020, an announcement will be revealed to the entire world explaining how the Golden King Tutankhamen died, according to Hawass.
After the lecture, the former Ambassador of Serbia to Egypt held a gala dinner in the presence of many intellectuals and politicians.
