New Discoveries in Drabu el Naga (Featuring Dr. Zahi Hawass)
Poziom:
Temat: Społeczeństwo i nauki społeczne
We are in this site, which is Drabu el Naga, a known site of the nobles' tombs.
The site of Drabu el Naga, I can see, it's virgin.
We just started the excavation and we found a tomb, a new one.
The owner of this tomb is written in this seal, his name is Amun-em-opet.
And it seems that the name 'Amun' inside the tomb was scratched,
maybe in the Amarna period.
But also in the same time the tomb was reused in the late 19th Dynasty,
at the beginning of the Third Intermediate period maybe, by a man called Ray.
And this shawabti has his name written.
And the shawabtis that found inside the tombs,
the shawabtis were put inside the tomb to answer the questions
and instead the deceased in the afterlife and also to do the tasks instead of the deceased.
This is another area that the Egyptian expedition from the west bank of Luxor are working.
And the excavation seems very interesting, because they found two important tombs.
One of them that contain the scene of the deceased,
his name is not clear, it's scratching.
But that person was a high priest of the god Montu.
And you see him with his wife worshiping the god Montu,
and the other scenes of Isis and Osiris and Nephtys and other gods also.
And this looks like it is not really a New Kingdom tomb, as Late period tomb.
They did not excavated the tomb yet, they started to seal entrance
and they need to excavate the stone rubble now.
The second one is very interesting.
The name of the person is written as Ankh-min
and from looking inside the tomb before the excavation,
it looks like this tomb is dated to the reign of Ramesses III.
And it looks very interesting,
it has the scenes of the deceased again in front of Osiris.
And I think, when this tomb will be excavated, it looks stolen,
but it would be very interesting to record all the tomb
and do conservation and restoration of the tomb
and to show a very interesting site just found recently.
We think that maybe some of – most of – the tombs here
could be opened before or stolen,
but I think and believe that this area could also contain some intact tombs.
And we are hoping that the houses built above them saved these tombs for us.
