The Egyptian archaeologist Zahi Hawass expressed his admiration of the newest discoveries found by the Egyptian archaeological mission in Saqqara in a new promotional film.
The discoveries include a group of colored wooden coffins that have been closed since their burial 2500 years ago. The coffins were buried at a depth of about 11 meters in the Saqqara necropolis.
This film is a part of the promotional series released by the Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities to promote the newest archaeological discoveries both locally and globally.
