While excavating an ancient Egyptian necropolis near Luxor, archaeologists discovered a 3,800-year-old tomb containing multiple individuals who might represent different generations of the same family.
The team, working at the South Asasif necropolis, found the remains of 11 individuals — five women, two men, three children and one who could not be identified. An analysis of the grave goods indicated that the burials date to the 12th dynasty (circa 1981 to 1802 B.C.) and 13th dynasty (circa 1802 to 1640 B.C.).
