Ancient artifacts over 4000 years old found in Egypt
The Egyptian archaeological mission in the Saqqara area has uncovered a tomb dating back to the Old Kingdom era (2686-2181 BC), one of the earliest periods marked by pyramid construction, known as the "Pyramid Builders' Age." The discovery features a system of burial pits and tombs, along with remains of the burial chamber of its owner, Sakhnetiu-Petah. Inside, there were funerary ritual objects made of alabaster, such as a offering table, a ritual disk, and a pitcher, along with hieroglyphic inscriptions bearing the tomb owner's titles. Thisfind underscores the site's cultural significance and provides new insights into funerary practices and the historical development of Old Kingdom tombs.
