During the archaeological dig seasons of 2010–2012, the scientific project "The University of Basel Kings’ Valley Project" began a study of several tombs, including Tomb KV 31. The tomb was mapped for the first time; it consists of a shaft (A), a chamber (B) and two additional chambers (C, D) opening from chamber B. Within the tomb they found five mummies, two women and three males, all between the ages of 18 and 30. As there are no names with the mummies, each was given a designation based upon the room they were found in (room C or room D).[1]
