Egyptian archaeologists discover mummy in previously unexplored tomb in Luxor
Egyptian archaeologists have discovered a mummy in one of two previously unexplored tombs across the Nile from the southern city of Luxor, the antiquities ministry said Saturday. The tombs were found in the 1990s by German archaeologist Frederica Kampp, though she had only reached the entrance gate “but never entered”, the ministry said. It said that both tombs, which were given numbers by Kampp, were likely to date back to dynasties of the New Kingdom, which lasted several centuries until about 3,000 years ago. Since Kampp’s discovery, “both tombs were left untouched” an Egyptian archaeological mission started work. Antiquities Minister Khaled al-Enany was in Luxor
