Originally Howard Carter discovered the tomb. However, Lord Carnarvon paid Howard a few bob to keep it quiet so that he could say that he discovered it. King Tutankhamen was discovered by Howard Carter in 1922. Carter found him in the valley of the kings and his search was financed by lord Carnarvon. When the expedition began, they found many workmen's huts and under the first hut they discovered stone steps going down. Those steps would soon lead to the tomb of the boy king! (All this info and to think I am only 12 years old)

It is unclear who buried Pharaoh Tutankhamun, though it was likely the Royal Undertakers. There is evidence that suggests that Tutankhamun's burial was a rush job, and that the burial team was not fully prepared for the task. This is likely due to the fact he died at the relatively young age of 19.

Was Ankhesenamun buried with Tutankhamun?

Ankhesenamun was not buried with Tutankhamen. It is unknown where her body is but we know it is not with him as it is known that after Tutankhamun died, Ay married Ankhesenamun. Just in case you are wondering who Ay was, he was grandfather of Ankhesenamun and advisor of Tutankhamun. And yes, that was my intended name, but I misspelt it.
