The finds were discovered about 435 km south of Cairo. Some are over 4300 years old.

Archaeologists have discovered more than 2,000 mummified ram heads and an Old Kingdom palace structure at the temple of King Ramses II at Abydos. This was reported by ScienceAlert.

In addition to the head of an ancient sheep, archaeologists from New York University also discovered a group of mummified dogs, wild goats, cows, deer and an ostrich.

It is thought that the mummified remains were left at this site in honor of Ramses II about 1000 years after his death. It is believed that sheep and other animals were used as offerings during worship at Abydus during the Bipid era.

In addition, the archaeological team also unearthed a “huge building” with walls about five meters thick, which was built in the 6th Dynasty of the Old Kingdom. The building contains statues, remains of trees, leather shoes, clothes and papyri.
