The site consists of six sectors constructed predominantly of basalt blocks and mud, mud bricks, and a number of buildings which are dug partially - or completely - in the geological substratum

The statue is displayed in the foyer of the museum and depicts the wet-nurse in a semi-squatting position, supporting the child-king on her lap with the aid of two cushions

The selection by the GEM board of directors was made following two and a half years of negotiations

An Egyptian excavation mission has uncovered the remains of a Roman fort, an early Coptic church, and a Ptolemaic temple during excavation work carried out at Shiha Fort in Upper Egypt's Aswan.

'The discoveries will rewrite Saqqara's history during the New Kingdom,' renowned Egyptologist Zahi Hawass said

The mission has discovered burial shafts with coffins and several artefacts from the New Kingdom

The relief is engraved with a scene depicting a man named Padi-Sena beside the two deities Horus and Hathor

'We have discovered only one percent of the antiquities buried in the Saqqara Necropolis,' Antiquities Minister El-Enany said, pointing out that many other discoveries will follow

The number of coffins exceeds that of the discovery announced in early October

In 2018, Egypt was able to recover 195 artefacts and 21, 660 coins that were illegally smuggled to Italy
