Archaeologists Discover 4400 Year Old Tomb in Egyptian Necropolis

When it comes to ancient Egypt, while a lot has been uncovered, there is still much more to be understood. It is why excavations around Egypt still continue to this day and probably will for a long time. Located some twenty miles south of Cairo, on the west bank of the Nile, where crop fields fed by the river give way to the desert, is the ancient site of Saqqara, which is distinguished by decrepit pyramids that protrude from the sand, like dragon's teeth. Archaeologists have been digging at the site of the Saqqara Necropolis for years, and in the process, they found something amazing. The degree to which the contents of this find are preserved is truly astonishing.

In today’s video, we will see what archaeologists discovered inside a 4400-year-old untouched tomb at Saqqara.
