Egyptian archaeologist Dr. Zahi Hawass gave many lectures in USA on the recent archaeological discoveries in Luxor and Saqqara. 

Hawass spoke about the archaeological discoveries in Saqqara and Luxor.

Hawass said, "We are now searching for the tomb of Imhotep in Saqqara, and the mission has already begun work in the site. We are also looking for Queen Nefertiti in Luxor, and we are also working now in the tomb of King Ramses II".

Hawass explained the details of the new archaeological discoveries in  Saqqara, next to the pyramid of King Teti, noting that the Egyptian mission found a 5-meter-long papyrus, a bronze "axe" belonging to one of the army soldiers, as well as some games, boats, wooden masks, a painting, and coffins of the modern state.

He talked about the lost golden city in Luxor, which dates back to the reign of King Amenhotep III, and continued to be used by Tutankhamun 3000 years ago. 

Hawass signed the book of Tutankhamun and the Secret of Egypt.
