An international team of archaeologists has made an astonishing discovery in a desert region of Egypt: two gigantic bodies, approximately 9 meters high, have been found under layers of earth dating back more than 5,000 years. This discovery, unprecedented in the history of archaeology, could rewrite what we know about ancient civilizations and their understanding of the “human.”

The discovery took place while researchers were excavating a complex of forgotten tombs deep in the Egyptian desert. According to team leader Dr. Ahmed el-Hᴀssan, the bodies were found under a layer of compacted earth that protected the remains from erosion and time. “What we found exceeds any expectations. “These colossal figures are incredibly well preserved, and preliminary dating suggests they are more than five millennia old,” said Dr. Hᴀssan.

The skeletons are impressive both for their size and their state of preservation. Each measures nearly 9 meters tall, with anatomically correct proportions that rule out the possibility of deformities or known pathological conditions. Additionally, the remains show signs of advanced mummification, suggesting that these gigantic figures could have occupied a significant place in the culture and mythology of their time.

The discovery has sparked an avalanche of theories among experts. One hypothesis suggests that these “giants” could be related to ancient myths about beings of enormous size that inhabited the Earth. Egyptian texts, such as Book of the ᴅᴇᴀᴅrefer to gigantic figures that interacted with gods and pharaohs, which raises the possibility that these bodies are real representations of said stories.

Another, more cautious theory suggests that the bodies could belong to an unknown or extinct human species. Ongoing genetic analyzes seek to determine whether there is a correlation with modern human DNA or whether, on the contrary, they represent an entirely

Archaeologists unearth 4500-year-old Ancient Egyptian tomb with astonishing treasures

Remarkable treasures have been discovered in the tomb, including a Second Dynasty child burial, a well-preserved alabaster vessel from the 18th Dynasty, and terracotta statues depicting Isis and Harpocrates.

Archaeologists have made a groundbreaking discovery in the necropolis of Saqqara, situated approximately 20 miles south of Cairo, as they unveil an ancient Egyptian tomb carved into rock over 4000 years ago.

The remarkable find, recently confirmed by Egypt’s Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities, has been brought to light by a collaborative effort between Egyptian and Japanese archaeologists.

The tomb, dating back between 2649 and 2150 BC and featuring multiple graves and artefacts that span different historical periods, “provides invaluable insights into the history of this region,” said Nozomu Kawai, the head of the Japanese team.
