Egyptian archaeologists have discovered dozens of rare dotnal tomb in the Delta, relating to the period of the first emergence of the Kingdom of Pharaohs more than 5,000 years ago, reports Reuters.
These times are also called prehistoric Egypt – a period from the emergence of a person before the formation of agricultural civilization. Found tombs are the holes of an oval form in which the body was placed in a sitting position, directed to the west. In some tombs, the vessels of cylindrical and pear-shaped forms are found. Also, the archaeologists found an oven, stoves, the remains of the foundation from raw bricks, clay vessels and amulets (especially the scarab beetles), some of which were made of semi-precious stones, and earrings.
Also nearby are the tombs of a later period – Gixos (1650-1500 BC), when West Asian nomads captured the country, putting an end to the average kingdom of Egypt.
According to Egyptologists, the finds can shed light into two important periods in ancient Egypt – a period of Boto, which began about 3300 years BC, and by the period of Maka III (about 3100 years BC), in which society began to develop from different layers.
At the end of last year in the Israeli Nazareth, archaeologists have discovered a house where, as expected, His childhood was held by Jesus Christ, living with Maria and Joseph. The assumption about the belonging of this house, the family of Jesus was first put forward in the 19th century, however, in the 1930s, this idea was rejected.
