A human face was cut into sarcophagus, and many mummies were found in the grave.
The Egyptian-Italian archaeological mission reported the opening of many Graves of the Hellenistic and Roman times at the western Nile bank near the Mausoleum of Aga Khan in Aswan. According to the LBV magazine, So -called Tomb 38, characterized by the complexity of the architecture and the extraordinary level of safety of the inscriptions, attracts the special attention of researchers.
The main funeral camera is located at a depth of more than two meters. Stone steps lead to this, on both sides where Adobe platforms are placed – perhaps for sacrifices. In the middle of the camera, archaeologists found a lime sarcophagus, where a detailed human face, a wig and gold jewelry were cut off. The basis of the sarcophagus is carved directly into the race, and the sarcophagus itself reaches a height of two meters.

A man’s face was cut into sarcophagus
On either side of the coffin, the pillars of the hieroglyphic containing calls to the local Asuan gods and named the name of the burial -mio, a high face of that time, was preserved. In inscriptions, members of his family were also mentioned.
In addition to sarcophagus, many mummies were found in the grave, which had children. Experts believe that this may indicate the use of funerals as a mausoleum family for a long time.
