Egypt uncovers Pharaonic tombs near Giza Pyramids

The tomb retains some of its inscriptions and scenes, Waziri said, adding that the tomb belongs to two persons.

"Many artifacts were discovered in the tomb. The most significant is a fine limestone statue of the tomb's owner, his wife and son," Waziri revealed.

Director General of Giza Plateau, Ashraf Mohi, said that the cemetery was reused extensively during the Late Period (since early 7th century BC).
