Wadi Al-Hitan (Whale Valley)
Wadi Al-Hitan, Whale Valley, in the Western Desert of Egypt, contains invaluable fossil remains of the earliest, and now extinct, suborder of whales, Archaeoceti. These fossils represent one of the major stories of evolution: the emergence of the whale as an ocean-going mammal from a previous life as a land-based animal. This is the most important site in the world for the demonstration of this stage of evolution. It portrays vividly the form and life of these whales during their transition. The number, concentration and quality of such fossils here is unique, as is their accessibility and setting in an attractive and protected landscape. The fossils of Al-Hitan show the youngest archaeocetes, in the last stages of losing their hind limbs. Other fossil material in the site makes it possible to reconstruct the surrounding environmental and ecological conditions of the time.๐Ÿ‹

30/05/2022

The Egyptian archaeological mission working in the cemetery of the sacred animals (Albubastien) in the Saqqara archaeological area succeeded in discovering the first and largest cache at the site dating back to the late period, during the work of the fourth excavation season of the mission.

Dr. Mustafa Waziri, Secretary-General of the Supreme Council of Antiquities and head of the mission, explained that the discovered cache includes 150 bronze statues of various sizes for a number of ancient Egyptian deities, including Anubis, Amun Min, Osiris, Isis, Nefertum, Bastet, and Hathor, in addition to a group of special bronze vessels. With the rituals of the goddess Isis such as Al-Salasl, as well as a bronze statue of the engineer Imhotep without a head, very precise and beautiful.

He added that the mission was also able to discover a new group of burial wells, in which a group of 250 colored wooden coffins from the late period, about 500 BC, were found, closed and containing mummies in good condition of preservation, in addition to a group of amulets and wooden statues, some of which are gilded in face. Colorful wooden boxes.

Dr. Mustafa Waziri indicated that the excavations inside one of the discovered burial wells resulted in the discovery of a papyrus sarcophagus in a good state of preservation, possibly containing chapters from the Book of the Dead, and that it was transferred to the restoration laboratories of the Egyptian Museum in Tahrir for sterilization, humidification, study and knowledge of the texts it contains.

The mission also found two colored wooden statues with a gilded face, in a good state of preservation, of the two goddesses Isis and Nephthys in the position of mourners, in addition to finding a burial from the New Kingdom around 1500 BC, containing many adornment tools such as a bronze mirror and a group of Bracelets, necklaces, earrings and anklets have their own staples and copper tools for everyday life.

Food is a large part of every countryโ€™s culture. So, to get to know more about Egyptian culture, here is a list of 10 traditional Egyptian dishes that you have to try when visiting Egypt.

Kushari
A mix of rice, spaghetti, small round macaroni, vermicelli, fried onions, black lentils and hummus, topped with thick tomato sauce, garlic and vinegar sauce, and chilli sauce put together in some kind of art. That mix may sound strange, but itโ€™s totally worth a try!

Rozz Meโ€™ammar
A dish of white rice prepared by the addition of milk, butter or cream and chicken broth. All the ingredients are baked in the oven, and then usually served in occasions and family gatherings.

Mulukhiya
A green leafy vegetable chopped and cooked with garlic in beef, rabbit or chicken stew, and served with rice or bread. One interesting thing about Mulukhiya is that it gets prepared differently in different areas in Egypt. For example, cities that are located near the coast usually prepare it with fish or shrimp. This dish is heaven, and so worth try.

Taโ€™meya (Egyptian Falafel)
Another common food for Egyptians that is usually served with Ful. The Taโ€™meya or Falafel is mainly prepared out of crushed fava beans mixed with other ingredients, then it gets fried. It is usually served with tahina and salad with Egyptian bread. Thatโ€™s a perfect dish for vegetarians too!

Alexandrian Liver and Sausages
Belonging to street food but also cooked at home. The liver is prepared with spicy pepper, and garlic or onion may be added. As for the sausage, it is usually cooked in different ways, but mostly with tomato sauce and spicy pepper. Theyโ€™re both served with pickles.

Kebab & Kofta
If youโ€™re a meat lover, then this is a must try! Kebab is prepared with pieces of grilled meat (lamb or veal). As for Kofta, it is piece of minced meat and is also prepared on the grill. Both are served with Egyptian bread, salads and tahina.

Besarah
Another perfect food for vegetarians! A green creamy mash prepared of parsley, dill, leek, grinded fava beans, spices, green pepper, and fried onions on the top. Served with Egyptian bread and green onions.

1. The discovery of the funerary temple of Queen Nearit, the wife of King Teti

2. The discovery of burial wells, coffins and mummies dating back to the New Kingdom 3000 BC

3. Discovery of a 4-meter-long papyrus containing the texts of Chapter 17 of the Book of the Dead

4. Discovery of statues, stelae, toys, wooden boats and funerary masks that date back to the New Kingdom

The Egyptian mission working in the Saqqara archaeological site next to the pyramid of King Teti, the first king of the Sixth Dynasty of the Old Kingdom, announced important archaeological discoveries dating back to the old and New Kingdoms.
The mission is headed by Dr. Zahi Hawass, who works in cooperation with the Ministry of Antiquities and through Bibliotheca Alexandrina.

These discoveries will rewrite the history of this region, especially during the 18th and 19th dynasties of the New Kingdom, during which King Teti was worshiped, and the citizens at that time were buried around his pyramid. The mission confirmed that the entrance to the Saqqara region in the New Kingdom was through this area.
The mission discovered the funerary temple of Queen Nearit, the wife of King Teti, part of which was already uncovered in the years prior.

The mission discovered the layout of the temple in which the queenโ€™s tomb was being revived, and the mission also found within the temple three mud-brick warehouses attached to the temple in the southeastern side - these stores were built to store temple provisions, offerings and tools that were used in the queenโ€™s tomb.

Among the most important discoveries of the mission also at the site was the unveiling of 52 burial shafts, that reach to 10-12 meters deep, and inside these shafts hundreds of wooden coffins dating back to the New Kingdom were uncovered. This is the first time that coffins dating back 3,000 years have been found in the Saqqara region.

These coffins are wooden and anthropoid, and are many scenes of the gods that were worshiped during this period were represented on the surface of the coffins, in addition to various excerpts from the Book of the Dead that help the deceased to pass through the journey of the other world. Indeed, as well as in the modern state. The discovery confirmed that the Saqqara area was not used for burial during the Late Period only, but also during the New Kingdom.
The mission also succeeded in discovering a cache of anthropoid wooden coffins. Inside this shaft, 50 coffins were found in good condition.

The mission uncovered a luxurious mud-brick shrine dating back to the New Kingdom, it reaches to a depth of 24m below the ground level without hitting the burial chamber yet.

The open court of the shaft was paved with well-polished and shiny limestone slabs, and this is the first time that a shaft with this depth has been found, and work is still in progress, and Dr. Zahi Hawass believes that this shaft was not looted by thieves, and it will be fully disclosed.
The discoveries found in the shaft are considered one of the most important findings uncovered in the Saqqara region, and date back to the New Kingdom.

This discovery confirmed the existence of many workshops that produced these coffins, which were bought by the locals, as well as mummification workshops.

Inside the shafts, the mission discovered large numbers of archaeological artifacts and a large number of statues that represents deities such as the god Osiris and Ptah-Soker-Osiris, in addition to a unique discovery, where the mission found a papyrus, whose length reached four meters in length and one meter in width, representing Chapter 17 from the Book of the Dead, and the name of its owner is recorded on it (Pw-Kha-Ef). The same name was found on four shabty statues, and on an anthropoid wooden coffin. Many beautiful shabty statues made of wood, stone and faience have been found dating back to the New Kingdom.

The mission also found many wooden funerary masks as well as a shrine dedicated to god Anubis (Guardian of the Cemetery) and beautiful statues of Anubis, as well as many games that the deceased used to play in the other world, such as the game (Senet), which is similar to the modern chess. as well as the (Twenty) game with the name of the player recorded. Many artifacts were found that represent birds such as geese, as well as a magnificent bronze ax, indicating that its owner was one of the army leaders during the New Kingdom.
A wonderful well preserved limestone stelae was found in one of the excavated shafts, it belongs to a man named Kha-Ptah and his wife Mwt-em-wia.

The upper part of the stelae represents the deceased and his wife in an adoration gesture in front of god Osiris, while the lower part represents the deceased sitting and behind him his wife seated on a chair. Below the chair of the wife there is one of their daughters sitting on her legs and smelling the lotus flower, and above her head is the ointment flask.

In front of the man and his wife we see six of their daughters and sons, who were depicted in two registers, the upper one for seated daughters smelling the lotus flowers and above their heads are the ointment flasks, and the lower one for standing sons.

The thing that grabs our attention that one of their daughters bear the name Nefertary, named after the beloved wife of king Ramesses II, who built her a marvelous tomb at Valley of the Queens as well as a temple at Abu Simbel.

In addition to that, one of his sons was names Kha-em-waset, named after one of the sons of King Ramesses II, and he is considered a wise man, and known as the first Egyptologist, who used to restore the antiquities of his ancestors.
As for the titles of the owner of the stela, he was the overseer of the kingโ€™s military chariot, which indicates his prestigious position during the 19th Dynasty.

The mission also found impressive quantities of pottery dating back to the New Kingdom, including pottery that gives us evidence about the commercial relations between Egypt and Crete, Syria, Palestine.
Dr. Sahar Selim, a professor of radiology at Qasr al-Aini, conducted studies on mummies using X-ray, and determined the causes of death and the age of the deceased on death, as well as studying a mummy for a young child.

The mission studied the mummy of a woman and determined that this woman suffered from a chronic disease known as "Mediterranean fever" or "swine fever", a disease that comes from direct contact with animals and leads to an abscess in the liver.

Dr. Zahi Hawass confirms that this discovery is considered the most important archaeological discovery during the current year and will make Saqqara, along with other discoveries, an important tourist and cultural destination. It will also rewrite the history of Saqqara during the New Kingdom, in addition to confirming the importance of the worship of King Teti during the 19th Dynasty of the New Kingdom.
