Egypt's top archaeologist claims Antony and Cleopatra tomb found

"Ahead of the start of excavations on Tuesday, Mr Hawass exhibited 22 coins, 10 mummies, an alabaster head and a fragment of a mask with a cleft chin as evidence that the site, a 2,000-year-old temple to the god Osiris, is likely to hold further treasures."

"He believes that the Toposiris Magna temple, 30 miles from Egypt's ancient seaside capital of Alexandria, contains the tomb of the doomed lovers that has been shrouded in mystery for so long."

Seems like Egypt parcels this stuff out about every other year when History Channel needs some new episodes and the Egyptain Head Egyptologist needs to refresh his coffers. yitbos

They’re announcing findings now, and rushing to complete the digging season.

That guy again.

I still remember him sending the robot up the new found shaft in the Cheops pyramid.

Reminded of Whorealdo and Al Capone’s safe, it did.
