A Pharaoh’s Massive Tomb Unveiled
The tomb of King Senwosret III, one of the most renowned pharaohs of ancient Egypt’s Middle Kingdom, is expected to open to the public in about a year or two, allowing tourists to appreciate the architecture of Egyptian builders who constructed the burial complex almost four thousand years ago, according to Dr. Josef Wegner, Associate Curator of the Egyptian Section of the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology (Penn Museum). He has been excavating in Abydos for decades.
Dated to 1850 BC, it is the largest tomb at Abydo, which is one of the oldest cities of ancient Egypt. The tomb measures 200 meters in length and 45 meters deep. To visualize how massive this is, one would need to imagine a 13 story building underground. “The architecture is amazing,” says Wegner. “It’s like going into a pyramid. It’s architecture is symbolic – depicting the sacred journey into the afterlife.” Read more.
Archaeologists in N. Iceland discover Viking age chief buried in ship with his sword and dog
Yesterday archaeologists, who are working at a large burial site in Eyjafjörður fjord in north Iceland, announced that they had discovered the remains of a ship burial dating back to the Viking age. A wealthy chieftain seems to have been buried in one of his boats along with some of his worldly possessions, including a sword and his dog. More unexplored burial sites are believed to be located at the site.
The grave is believed to date back to the 9th or 10th centuries. The sword, which was found close to the surface is in very poor condition. The archaeologists expect to remove the sword from the ground today.
The archaeological dig takes place north of the town of Akureyri at a site which is believed to have been of enormous local importance during the Viking age. A few hundred meters south of the burial site is Gáseyri, which was the primary trading post in Eyjafjörður fjord during the Viking age. Read more.

Ancient monumental grave under agricultural field in Mardin
The monumental grave of ancient Greek astrologist and philosopher Aratos, which is inside the ancient city of Soli Poempiopolis in the southern Turkish province of Mersin’s Mezitli district, is currently used as an agricultural field, underneath a large greenhouse.
“The grave is not open to visitors because it is on a private land. It is under an orange garden next to the columns of the ancient city but we have not been able to unearth it,” said Mezitli Mayor Neşet Tarhan.
Tarhan said most of the ancient city and its columns remain underground.
“There is also a harbor to the south of the columns that we have not yet unearthed. We haven’t received support from the Culture Ministry. But over the past two years works have accelerated with the contributions from the Mersin Metropolitan Municipality. Read more.
