Archaeologists discover a 2,500-year-old tomb in Cairo with intriguing serpent spells, providing new insights into the ancient Egyptian afterlife.
An ancient Egyptian crypt, replete with sacred carvings, portrayals of a pantheon of gods and goddesses, and magic spells to ward off snake bites, has been found 50 feet below the ground. It also bears clues that may point to the cause of the occupant's death.
Czech archaeologists rediscovered the lost tomb of ancient Egyptian high official Ptahshepses who lived during the 24th and 25th centuries BCE.
The tomb was partially discovered nearly 160 years ago but was lost in the sand until now.
The burial chamber included several artifacts (including pottery), the remains of votive offerings, jars and a mummified fish.
