The Egyptian tomb of the Sixth Dynasty

The tomb of Vizier Mekhu - the right hand of Pharaoh Aeti - was discovered in 1940. It is located in Saqqara, near Giza, and is considered the most beautiful tomb among its kind.

Almost 80 years this place was closed to visitors. Today, the Ministry of Antiquities of Egypt is proud to present the result of a long restoration work.
