Among other finds are more miniature vessels, bowls with hieratic texts, linen, jar lids and reed tubes (containing a powdery substance). One of the jars emptied this season had what must be a whole storage jar within it --- in many fragments, of course. A rough estimate is that the tomb and coffins may have contained nearly forty of these large storage jars, all virtually identical to those found by Theodore Davis in KV-54.
The new array of natron, natron bags, natron “noodles”, chaff and botanic materials add to the assemblage we collected in 2006. One new twist consisted of some small bowls tied with strips of cloth and filled with pigments. One is a dark brown powder, another black. One such bowl is labeled ‘sh3’ which is described as a grain or mineral in the Berlin Dictionary. We will soon select and package samples in the hopes of submitting them for testing.
More seal impressions and some wine jar stoppers (fragmentary) still leave us lacking a royal name but we are making some headway. There are six more storage jars to open and these will be done in mid February when Atlantic Productions is scheduled to come out and film a follow up to the program aired in 2006.
Coffin G (Youth) has been carefully cleaned inside and out. Being the best preserved of the larger coffins, Coffin G gives us our best hope to recover some texts from under the resin. Within a few days, we hope to have the Coffin C fragments taken out so Earl Ertman can get a good look at both fragments of what maybe a distinctive face.
During this past month, we have also begun photographing all of the KV-10 and ‘hut’ ostraca in digital format. This should make for easier and quicker access to the ostraca inscriptions in the near future. In addition, pottery expert Dave Aston visited last week. Later, when all of the KV-63 wares have been drawn, we hope to have him out again for an extended stay.
Staff Photographer, George Johnson has been busy photographing the collection in the Luxor Mummification Museum. KV10/KV63 Recorder Betty Schneider arrived a few days ago for a month’s stay. Later this week several of our earlier staff members will depart while new members will arrive to fill the void.
Last, but not least, sincere thanks to Bill and Nancy Petty (Museum Tours) for facilitating our financing issues this season.

Servus All!
This has already proved to be a most enjoyable and productive season.
We have been busy opening jars, taking delivery of new bookcases for storage, chemicals for the conservators and making an inventory of some of our many locker boxes.
The newly opened storage jars continue to bequeath some surprising objects! A report on some of our findings and images will be forthcoming soon.
In addition to having Inspector Ezzat assigned to the mission, we also have a second Inspector, Abd El Nasser Mohamed Ahmed Saad. Conservator, Amany Email Nashed, also has some new help, Restorer Zaryf Alion Basyly and Saad Abd El Maugwd Abd El Hady.
For everyone in the Luxor area Professor Earl Ertman is scheduled to lecture at the Mummification Museum on Saturday, January 24th at 7 P.M. His topic will be 'Look into their Eyes: Three Coffin Faces from KV-63.' We hope to see some of you there......
More to come....soon.!

A short message today: We have begun to open a few of the remaining storage jars and have discovered some very ‘intriguing’ objects. Our conservators are in the process of restoring some of these objects in addition to continuing their work on the resin covered coffins. We will unveil these wonderful new ‘finds’ and a few photos of the artifacts after obtaining proper approval from Dr. Hawass. So don’t miss the next update!
In the meantime, our staff continues to trickle in. So far we have Earl, George, Elaine, Roxanne, Heather, Salima, two SCA Inspectors and four egyptian workers.
More soon,
El Mudir

Our 2009 Season has begun...
Dr. Otto Schaden safely arrived in Luxor and officially opened KV-10 and KV-63 on the 6th of January.
In Otto's words....KV-10 (where everything is stored) is 'very dusty!' but the cleaning crew are already hard at work.
Thus far, there is not much to report however we are happy to announce that Inspector Ezzat has been reassigned to us. For those of you who may not recall, Ezzat was the original SCA inspector assigned to us when KV-63 was discovered in February 2006. We are very glad to have him back.
The rest of the team will begin to arrive by the end of this week.
More soon.....
