Archaeology

The strange tale of two mummies discovered beneath the Prudential Center collides with the Devils’ run of bad injury luck this season.

Archaeologists uncovered 225 inscribed funerary statues beside an unmarked sarcophagus in Osorkon II’s tomb, strengthening the case for two royal burials at Tanis, Egypt.

The event is part of the AlUla Moments schedule, a government-supported initiative aimed at expanding cultural tourism and encouraging deeper engagement with the area’s archaeological heritage. 

Sofia Andersson, an antiquarian at the County Administrative Board of Stockholm, said the discovery is “one of the largest silver hoards from the early Middle Ages ever found in Sweden.”

Nanotyrannus and Tyrannosaurus both were members of a lineage of meat-eating dinosaurs called tyrannosaurs, but were not the same genus, the researchers said.

Officials believe the Grand Egyptian Museum, or GEM, alone could draw as many as 7 million additional visitors annually after it opens on Saturday.

There are 164 tours to prominent buildings, public institutions, private homes, and quaint hideaways nestled in obscure spots around town unbeknownst to the majority of us.

The finding provides “direct evidence of official correspondence between the Assyrian Empire and the Kingdom of Judah," according to an excavation expert.

If it was not part of the snake lineage, Breugnathair may have been an evolutionary dead end, with snake-like predatory habits emerging separately in a group that ultimately went extinct.

As all these discoveries show, the land’s buried secrets have the power to transform our understanding of history, faith, and the human experience.
