If anything could ever stir the imaginations of lovers of the ancient world, and of Pharaonic Egypt in particular, it would be the tombs and treasures left by the kings who died thousands of years ago but left their monuments behind. Such monuments have etched their names into the history of mankind, and they continue to impress us today just as much as the times in which they were built. Curiously, it wasn't inside of these magnificent monuments where the bodies of the pharaohs who made possible these extraordinary Egyptian constructions were found, but they were instead hidden in modest graves and dirty caves, where they managed to evade thieves throughout the centuries. In the following pages we will review some of these findings that once astonished and blew the world away, although it is true that not all of them had the same media coverage. Of course, there is the most famous of all the tombs-that of Tutankhamun-but also others that are not so known, like the necropolis of Tanis, that presented the paradox of being the one that brought out not one, but three intact royal tombs, and yet is also one of the least known episodes of Egyptian archaeology. Not to mention the first major finding, the discovery in the mountains of Deir el Bahari, of a cache with dozens of mummies, among which there were those of some of the most powerful pharaohs of Egypt's history . I hope you enjoy it. Important: This book includes my ebooks: "The Royal mummies' Hideout," "Tutankamun's Tomb and the Curse of the Mummies" and "The Silver Pharaohs (The Royal Tombs of Tanis)."
