Egyptian archaeologists announced the discovery of three ancient tombs in Luxor's Dra Abu al-Naga necropolis, dating back to the New Kingdom (1550-1070 BC). The tombs belonged to prominent figures, including a supervisor of a grain silo and an official from the Temple of Amun. Artifacts and statues were found within. This discovery precedes the anticipated opening of the Grand Egyptian Museum, expected to showcase over 100,000 artifacts. The Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities highlighted the discovery's significance for boosting cultural tourism.
