Cairo Unveils 560 Nile Delta Statues
The Egyptian archaeological mission has uncovered a new funerary unit at the Tal Asar Cemetery in Quesna Governorate, Menoufia. It includes 560 small funerary statues (ushabtis) inscribed with texts from the Book of the Dead, along with various funerary items such as protective amulets, pottery vessels, and human remains. This discovery enhances our understanding of burial practices and commercial relations between Egypt and the Mediterranean basin during the Late and Greco-Roman periods. It also reveals important details about religious and economic life during that era.
