Answer 2

Joann Fletcher, 2003

On June 9, 2003, archaeologist Joann Fletcher, a specialist in ancient hair from the University of York in England, announced that Nefertiti's mummy may have been one of the anonymous mummies stored in tomb KV35 in the Valley of the Kings known as "the Younger Lady". However, an independent scholar in the field of Egyptology, Marianne Luban, had already made the same speculation as early as 1999 in an article posted on the Internet, entitled "Do We Have the Mummy of Nefertiti?" Luban's points upholding the identification are the same as those of Joann Fletcher. Furthermore, Fletcher suggested that Nefertiti was in fact the Pharaoh Smenkhkare. Dr. Fletcher led an expedition funded by the Discovery Channel that examined what they believed to have been Nefertiti's mummy.

Answer 3

There is no exact date to be had. In the last few months, the mummy thought to be that of Nefertiti was examined using the latest technology and cat-scanning, and was found to be that of a young male. New tombs have been discovered recently (late July/early August) far out in the desert, and nowhere near the Valley of the Kings, by Dr Zahi Hawass and his colleagues. This included a cache of mummies that seem to have been relocated in antiquity, for preservation reasons. One of these is thought to be Nefertiti's, but the examination is still ongoing.
