Egypt has unveiled a significant new archaeological discovery at the Saqqara necropolis south of Cairo, including 54 wooden coffins, many of which can be traced back 3000 years to the New Kingdom period.

The funerary temple of Queen Neit was also discovered near the pyramid of her husband, King Teti. 

Ancient games, statues, and masks were also found.

Also among the discoveries was a 13ft-long papyrus including texts of the Book of the Dead and a collection of spells aimed at directing the dead through the underworld in ancient Egypt.  

Officials are keen to show off newly discovered artefacts as they try to revive visitor numbers. The number of tourists visiting the country dropped to 3.5 million last year from 13.1 million in 2019.

Dayum. Who knew that the SLAYAGE of the classic 1999 film, The Mummy, was actually prophetic. Praise Rachel Weisz:firega:

Oh god... they're gonna curse us.

 

Actually... if memory serves, the books were reversed in The Mummy so this book could give us life again. Yaaaaas.

If there's one thing I learned from movies, it's definitely to never read this damn Book of the Dead
