3,800-year-old Egyptian mummy discovered along Nile River


A 3,800-year-old tomb holding the mummy of powerful governor’s family has been discovered along the Nile River in Egypt. Archaeologists from University of Jaen in Spain have discovered two coffins, at least one mummy, and wooden models of boats and people. The tomb structure appears to hold multiple burials. “We have found the mummy-body of Shemai, but we left him in his original position, in his coffin. The next year, we will have the opportunity to look at his face,” said Jimenez-Serrano.
