Ministry of Antiquities - Press Release (23.03.2017) :

"The European Egyptian mission working in King Amenhotep III funerary temple at Kom Al-Hittan area on Luxor west bank, has uncovered a beautifully carved statue possibly of Queen Tiye. Tiye was the wife of king Amenhotep III and grandmother of the boy king Tutankhamun. The newly discovered statue is carved in alabaster and uncovered beside the right leg of the lower part of a statue of her husband King Amenhotep III. Minister of Antiquities, Dr. Khaled El-Enany describes the queen statue as "beautiful, distinguished and unique." He said that it is the first time to find an alabaster statue of Queen Tiye inside the temple as all her previously discovered ones were carved in quartzite. Dr. Hourig Sourouzian, Head of the mission said that the queen statue was accidentally discovered while lifting up the lower part of king Amenhotep III colossus. The Queen statue was found beside the right leg of the king's colossus. Dr. Sourouzian asserted that the statue is in a very good conservation condition and it still keeps its ancient colours. Consolidation work and ine restoration are to be carried out on the statue."
