C; Doubt Expressed By Scientists BOSTON, March 10. UP) The tomb found at Giza by the Boston Harvard expedition Is not that of either Seneferu or Cheops, Pr. George A. Iteisner, head of the expe dition said here today. Pr. Iteisner, who before leaving Egypt planned the work that resulted in tbe uncovering of the tomb said he believed the snr copiiagus disclosed by the expedition to be that of a member of the royal family, probably a princess. LONDON, March 10. OP Egyp tologists here agree that if the tomb found by the Boston-Harvard expedi tion deep down hi .the rocks near the great pyramid at Oista proves to be that of the pharnoh who immedi ately preceded the renowned pyramid builder Cheops, its importance is far greater than that of Tut-Ankh-Amen because it is some thousands of years older and the contents may throw light upon that remote period about which very little is known. Of Fourth Dynasty The pbaranh Seneferu whose name is variously, spelled by English Egyptologists was the first ruler of the fourth dynasty (about 4.000 B. C.) while Tut-Ankh-Amen reigned as late as tho ISth dynasty, the history of which is fnirly familiar. More over, Tut-Ankh-Amen wns a relative ly unimportant king while Seneferu was regarded as one of the founders of the Egyptian empire, and a man of greato enterprise nnd energy.
