http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-30674339 Archaeologists in Egypt have unearthed the tomb of a previously unknown queen, Egyptian officials say. The tomb was found in Abu-Sir, south-west of Cairo, and is thought to belong to the wife or mother of Pharaoh Neferefre who ruled 4,500 years ago. Egyptian Antiquities Minister Mamdouh el-Damaty said that her name, Khentakawess, had been found inscribed on a wall in the necropolis. Mr Damaty added that this would make her Khentakawess III. The tomb was discovered in Pharaoh Neferefre's funeral complex. Looks like a pretty significant find! I wonder how many others are left to discover? |

True. Maybe it hides entire kingdoms that we didn't know about; who knows? |
