Hawass explained the details of the new archaeological discoveries in the Saqqara region, next to the pyramid of King Teti, noting that the Egyptian mission found a 5-meter-long papyrus, a bronze "axe" belonging to one of the army soldiers, as well as some games, wooden boats, masks, a painting and coffins of the modern state.

He talked about the lost golden city in Luxor, which dates back to the reign of King Amenhotep III, and continued to be used by Tutankhamun 3000 years ago.
