Discoveries in Egypt reveal 4,000-year-old tombs and mummification workshops
Archaeologists have discovered new tombs and mummification workshops in Egypt that are more than 4,000 years old. Excavations were carried out at the Saqqara necropolis in the city of Giza. It is estimated that this is the largest center ever found in the region and the discoveries were evaluated by the director of the Council of Antiquities of Egypt, Mostafa Waziry.
During the excavation, two statues were found, in addition to the two mummification workshops. According to experts, one of the workshops was used for embalming people, while the other had the same purpose, but was intended for animals. This discovery is considered a historical rarity, dating to approximately 300 years before Christ, according to Waziry.
Furthermore, the explorations also led to another major discovery: two small tombs that are around 4,400 years old, belonging to priests. These priests were responsible for religious rituals and ceremonies in ancient cultures, playing a crucial role in guiding the spiritual life of societies at the time.
