CAIRO – Archaeologists have unearthed 57 ancient
Egyptian tombs, most of which hold an ornately painted wooden
sarcophagus with a mummy inside, Egypt’s Supreme Council of
Antiquities said Sunday.
The oldest tombs date back to around 2750 B.C., during
the period of Egypt’s first and second dynasties, the council said in
a statement. Twelve of the tombs belong the 18th Dynasty, which
ruled Egypt during the second millennium B.C. The 18th Dynasty
includes such well-known pharaohs as Tutankhamen, Akhenaton and
Queen Hatshepsut.
The discovery throws new light on Egypt’s ancient
religions, the council said.
