A team of Egyptian archaeologists have unearthed a 3,200-year-old tomb believed to belong to a high-ranking military commander from the reign of Pharaoh Ramesses III, often considered the last great pharaoh of ancient Egypt.
The remarkable discovery, made at the Tell el-Maschuta site in northeastern Egypt, sheds light on the region’s strategic role in defending the nation’s eastern borders during the New Kingdom (spanning roughly 1550-1070 BCE).
