Roman tombs and camp found in Tel Al-Yehudiya
The Egyptian archaeological mission in the Tel Yodiyah area of Qalyubia Governorate has uncovered rock-cut tombs dating back to the late New Kingdom period, which continued to be used into the later eras. Additionally, remains of a Roman camp were found on the surface, confirming that the site was utilized across different historical periods. The tombs feature two unique architectural styles: one with an entrance leading to a staircase and a hall, and the other with a shaft leading to two burial chambers—an uncommon pattern in the Nile Delta, according to experts. These discoveries are significant for understanding burial practices and the history of the region, especially considering their connection to the periods of the Hyksos, Greece, and Rome.
