Avast ye mateys! A merry band of treasure-seekin' swabs from Egypt and Germany unearthed the resting place of a governor's lass! Two tombs, one snug as a bug within the other, all decked out in fancy scribbles and art fit for a captain's feast! Arrr!
Ahoy, mateys! Gather 'round as I spin ye a yarn of a grand discovery from the sands of Egypt! While diggin' up the tomb of one Jifai-Hapi, a fancy governor of yore, the brave archaeologists stumbled upon the final resting place of his fair daughter, Edi. Aye, it be announced on the mystical scrolls of Facebook by the Ministry o' Tourism and Antiquities on the second day of October in the year 2024!Now, this Jifai-Hapi, who sailed the seas of power during the reign of King Senusret I, had a tomb bigger than a whale's belly, signalin' he was a right important ruler, savvy? The archaeologists dug down a whopping 50 feet, uncoverin' two coffins, one snug as a bug inside the other—like a Russian doll but made of wood and gold, arr!
The bigger coffin stood tall at 8.5 feet, while the wee one measured 7.5 feet. Both were painted like a ship’s sails on a fine day! This gem of a find sheds light on the Middle Kingdom, a time often overshadowed by the fancier eras of the Pharaohs, aye. And though tomb raiders had plundered, remnants of the governor's lass remain for study. It appears she kicked the bucket before 40, sufferin’ from a foot defect—blimey! A tale yet to unfold, as the clever landlubbers continue their research, hoisting the sails of knowledge. Arrr!
