ARCHAEOLOGISTS in Egypt’s Western Desert have discovered a huge cemetery, so far uncovering 200 mummies including some of the wealthy and powerful of 3000 years ago. The cemetery, which dates back to the early Greco-Roman era, is believed to contain more than 10000 mummies, making it the biggest ever uncovered. The site, 300kms southwest of Cairo, has been renamed “Valley of the Mummies,” the news agency said. Fifty mummies, some decorated with golden masks, were found in each of four rooms.
