In preparation to open Tombs of the Nobles and the Qubbet el Hawa in Aswan infront of visitors for the first time since they were discovered, the Supreme Council for Antiques has begun implementing a project to rehabilitate and develop the sites.
In a statement released this week, Dr. Mustafa Waziri, Secretary-General of the Supreme Council of Antiquities, said that “this step comes within the framework of the Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities’ initiative to rehabilitate and develop archaeological sites throughout the republic, especially in Upper Egypt, and to make more archaeological sites open to visitors.”
