Archaeologists Discover 4400 Year Old Tomb in Egyptian Necropolis

When it comes to ancient Egypt, while a lot has been uncovered, there is still much more to be understood. It is why excavations around Egypt still continue to this day and probably will for a long time. Located some twenty miles south of Cairo, on the west bank of the Nile, where crop fields fed by the river give way to the desert, is the ancient site of Saqqara, which is distinguished by decrepit pyramids that protrude from the sand, like dragon's teeth. Archaeologists have been digging at the site of the Saqqara Necropolis for years, and in the process, they found something amazing. The degree to which the contents of this find are preserved is truly astonishing.

Welcome to Crunch. In today’s video, we will see what archaeologists discovered inside a 4400-year-old untouched tomb at Saqqara.

It is so refreshing to see Africans taking responsibility for researching their own history and not being the anonymous men who actually did the excavations for 18th and 19th century Europeans only to see their historical artefacts carted off to add to the storerooms of European and American museums. Im not a fan of Hawass but I think his ego helped kickstart the process in Egypt.

6:45 i wonder what this lintel is made of? Looks like modern reinforced concrete, was it made recently in order to get safely through perhaps?

It's so nice to see the beautiful discoveries for the Egyptians to share with the world as opposed to... ya know... stealing them.

And Hawass said there was nothing to be found shows how much he really knew about his beloved Egypt. With someone new in charge now, there are a lot of wonderful finds being made. Filling in a lot of missing pieces to Egypt's history.

It seems very few bother to pronounce ancient Egyptian names correctly as phonetically spelled in hieroglyphics. Nearly every video I see mispronounces the names given. Very few are properly educated in the ancient Egyptian mother tongue. I suppose they do not believe it to be important since it is a "dead language".
Another thing that bothers me is when they substitute the real Egyptian names with the Greek derivatives or modern or Arabic names. It makes me want to break out in hieroglyphs!

Leave the dead alone, would you go into a cemetery and dig of somebody's grave, and why in the hell would you dig up someone's grave in Egypt .

It all very catholic, wide open and forbidden. Extremely difficult to know and precisely destroyed away.

Spelling: Should read "royal HUES". Hue means colour. Hugh is a name usually for a man

When the narrator asks "what do you think?" then it is an OPINION Piece and has left facts OUT. Meaning he is full of B.S. Archeologists TELL US what it is. That is why they study.

Untouched tombs ... that's what we want to hear/see.
