New tombs and industrial zone found in Egypt

Near the Egyptian city of Luxor, archaeologists have found several tombs and the territory on which there was an industrial zone. There were at least 30 workshops, where many centuries ago there were houses for storage and cleaning of funeral furniture. In addition, archaeologists have discovered many pottery created during the 18th dynasty.

On the production site there is a water storage tank, which was used by workers. Various objects were also found near it, in particular, gold jewelry and a ring in the form of a scarab. The tomb should be opened in the near future to increase the flow of tourists. The team that made the discovery of the new tombs has been working on the west shore of the Nile for 2 years and hopes to find new artifacts.
