An ancient necropolis hidden underneath an Egyptian city on the outskirts of Cairo has been discovered by archaeologists in a historical break-through.
The untouched tomb in Minya, close to Tuna el-Gebel contains up to 1,000 small statues, a unique necklace charm and 40 stone of sarcophagi.
It is believed that the site is more than 2,000 years old and holds relics dating from the late Pharaonic period to the early Ptolomaic era.
