Giant statue of Pharaoh Ramses II is found buried in a Cairo slum

Archaeologists from Egypt and Germany found the statue of Pharaoh Ramses II in the Mattarya district in Cairo which used to be the site of the ancient capital of Heliopolis.

This isn’t Ramesses II, although I’m sure he’d put his name on it if he could. It’s a statue of one of the Psammetichus’, from Dynasty 26. Fantastic find. It looks enormous.
