From mummies with gold-plated tongues to a pyramid built for a previously unknown queen, here are 10 spectacular discoveries about ancient Egypt from 2022.
Archaeologists excavating at the necropolis at Saqqara, 20 miles south of Cairo, have unearthed 300 ornate coffins from the New Kingdom period – the first time burials from this era have been found at the site.
The discovery also uncovered a queen’s pyramid, which has since been tied to Queen Neith—a previously unknown queen to Egyptian history.
An unknown Egyptian Queen called Neith was in the Giza complex with countless mummies discovered in her crypt, close to King Tut's tomb.
