How did Egyptians prevent tomb robbers?


How did Egyptians prevent tomb robbers? To prevent the robbing of tombs, the Ancient Egyptians carved warnings and curses in the tombs. They also hid the burial chamber within the tomb and used various rubble to block up passages and chambers in the tombs. Sometimes, they were successful, and sometimes, they were not.


What Egyptian tombs are still undiscovered?

Yet many questions remain. Although the efforts of Belzoni, Loret, Davis, Carter and others helped reveal the tombs of most of the New Kingdom pharaohs, several remain unaccounted for – including those of Ahmose I, Amenhotep I, Tuthmose II and Ramesses VIII.
