The heiroglyphics seem to read “Bob [...] your uncle.”

I wonder what this could mean...

King Amenhoteb III, also known as Amenhotep the Magnificent...

ATM for short? He must have been rich.

What'll they fish out next, the bones of Joseph?

Ah, yes, the Aswan Dam, built for the same purpose that the Three Gorges Dam was in China. They'll tell you flood control and electricity generation, but the true story is...Zombies. Some things are better left inundated.

Was excited to see this was from The Daily Mail so we could get pictures this time. Greatly disappointed. What is it with archeology that they ALWAYS hide the finds from view?

If I had a time machine and could follow just one piece of these artifacts... what an incredible trip that would be. It would also answer the question “How in the heck did these wind up at the bottom of the Nile?”. Didn’t they have a Goodwill Store back then, when cleaning out the palace?

It is ironic that a minor Pharaoh like Tutankhamun is better known than Thotmose III
