A new ancient tomb is unveiled in the Theban necropolis of Al-Assasif in the southern city of Luxor, Egypt, on Nov. 24. The tomb dates back to the Middle Kingdom, which spanned the 11th and 12th dynasties, and is the burial site of nobles and senior officials close to the pharaohs. Among the findings in the tomb are sarcophagi, statues and some funerary figurines called "Ushabtis" made of wood, faience and clay.
