The Egyptian Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities announced on Sunday the discovery of a Pharaonic tomb on the West Bank of Luxor, unearthed during ongoing archaeological excavations.
According to a ministry statement, the discovery was made by a Dutch archaeological mission working within the Theban Necropolis.
Hisham Elleithy, secretary-general of Egypt’s Supreme Council of Antiquities (SCA), said inscriptions identify the tomb’s owner as “Paser,” with wall reliefs tentatively dating the structure to the New Kingdom (1550 BC-1069 BC).
