The work is being carried out south of the King Unas Pyramid in Saqqara by an Egyptian-German mission. AFP
The tomb was found at the depth of five metres, considered to be the largest to be discovered in Alexandria with the height of 185 cm, length 265 cm and width of 165 cm. AFP
There has been no reveal on when archaeologists plan to open the sarcophagus. However, they said they will allow for media to come and cover the event when they decide to do so. AFP
