Archaeologists in Egypt have uncovered the tomb of Ramses II’s chief treasurer.

In Egypt, archaeologists have discovered the tomb of Batah-M-Woya, the chief treasurer during the reign of King Ramses II.

According to a statement from Egypt’s Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities released on Saturday, the tomb is situated in Saqqara, an ancient burial site located south of Cairo.

Saqqara has yielded a remarkable series of discoveries in recent years, with this latest find being attributed to a team of archaeologists from Cairo University.

Along with the tomb of the former treasurer, the excavation team also found the graves of several other dignitaries, including a military commander named Hor Mohib.

Ramses II, often called Ramses the Great, ruled Egypt for an impressive 66 years, from 1279 to 1213 BC, marking the second-longest reign in ancient Egyptian history.

Located about 20 miles south of Cairo, Saqqara is a vast burial site that once served the ancient capital of Memphis, and it is home to Egypt’s oldest surviving pyramid.

In January, officials revealed the discovery of a hidden collection of burial shafts, which contained hundreds of wooden coffins.
