The sector was also dealt a further blow this year by the coronavirus pandemic. Roads along the route have also been repaved to keep the journey smooth. In the statement released on Saturday, Mr Hawass said the latest discovery could shed new light on the history of Saqqara during the New Kingdom, between the 16th century BC and the 11th century BC. The vital tourism sector suffered from years of political turmoil and violence that followed a 2011 uprising that toppled autocrat Hosni Mubarak. He said they would announce another discovery at the Saqqara necropolis later this year.
Mr Jarefs announced they would find new evidence in the next couple of weeks.
