'coincidentally discovered'

Could someone please explain what this means? Co-incidental with what? Grandma Roses (talk) 17:49, 19 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Well, they were conducting excavations in the area, but they weren't looking for the tomb specifically or anything. So while the discovery was a result of archaeological work, you could argue that it was not on purpose... I am not sure how much sense that makes, as it was not a layperson that spotted the tomb. — Toдor Boжinov — 15:22, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
