Why was this tomb in Luxor's 'Valley of the Kings' lacking any kind of decoration or hieroglyphics? Egyptologists believe it belonged not to a king, but another lesser royal.

There sure is a lot of them and I wonder how long they been there if it was after they opened it or from before it was closed

The wall and cycling are filled with nest of the insect which we called it 'angkut-angkut'. This insect love building their nest in cold and dark places away from heated sun. This insect which has resemblance of the wasps with black and yellow colour build their nest from wet mud. On each nest it will be filled with paralyse insects such as spiders and then the angkut-angkut will lay a single egg in the nest before sealing it. The larvae will hatch and eat the spiders. Upon mature the angkut-angkut will cracks the nest and breaks free. Their eventually will come again to the same birthplace and reproduce. Eventually the insect will make a new nest and thus littered the wall with empty nest. What you see it not a colony of angkut-angkut but simply an abondon old nest as angkut-angkut will not reuse the old nest.

Are the findings in Egypt older than we think? If they who made these didn't decorate, the decoration may have been done much later, which experts use to date the finding. I'm just wondering.

Many un-decorated New Kingdom rock-cut tombs were created in the Valley of the Kings near Luxor. This is not particularly new information.

When digging the place is so difficult, think about the efforts needed in building them. 'We' cannot rebuild them. Then what right we have to destroy them? Would the builders permit 'us' ? We could wait for another 3000 years to quench 'our'thirst for knowledge.
