Great discovery: A series of ancient tombѕ full of gold and jade reveаled that you did not know
Gold-covered Egyptian male and female mummies were found in an ancient temple in Taposiris Magna in the Nile Delta, Egypt. The two mummies were identified as male and female priests of the legendary queen Cleopatra, and were covered in gold leaf with precious scarab-shaped jewelry and ancient coins. Archaeologists are still exploring the area around the temple, as it is believed that these two priests were protecting the tomb of Cleopatra and her lover Mark Antony.
27 ancient tombs, dating back 2,000 years, were discovered in Xi’an, Shaanxi, China. The tombs are believed to belong to wealthy owners, possibly related to the legendary Silk Road, and each tomb was filled with valuable burial goods. Four of the tombs contained remains dressed in clothes made of 2,200 pieces of jade.
The ancient tomb of a Greek warrior was discovered in the ruins of the city of Pylos, Greece. It took archaeologists five years to uncover and restore the remains, which were buried with 3,500 weapons, exquisite gold, silver, and precious stone jewelry, worth many times their weight in gold. The tomb dates back to 1450 BC.
The “Mummy Treasure” El-Ghorefa is an ancient tomb built in the form of a special “burial well” of the ancient Egyptians, leading to a large room carved into the rock, containing four mummies of the “royal treasure keeper.” The mummies were buried with 1,000 exquisite burial objects, including many valuable tin-glazed ceramic statues. This 2,500-year-old Egyptian pottery is considered one of the most amazing treasures discovered in Egypt in recent years.
A Chinese couple from the Sui Dynasty chose to be buried together in an elaborately sculpted marble “coffin bed” that blended Buddhist and Persian religious motifs. The tomb, located in An Duong city, Ha Nam province, contains many valuable ceramics and gems, including masterpieces and imports from the mysterious Persia. The tomb is believed to be 1,400 years old and is being studied by the An Duong Institute of Cultural Relics and Archaeology.
