Egypt unveiled what it described as a 'one of a kind' cache that contained hundreds of statues and mummified animals, dating back to the 26th dynasty in the seventh century BC, officials said.

Egypt unveiled what it described as a"one of a kind" cache that contained hundreds of statues and mummified animals. This discovery also included the"biggest scarab in the world" as well as mummies of at least two cubs at the Saqqara necropolis, some 30 kilometers south of Cairo.

"The loveliest discovery out of those hundreds is the scarab; it's the hugest scarab all over the world. The loveliest surprise is that we also found two small cubs for the first time. El-Waziri also said that three other"big cats" were also discovered but that they will undergo further scans to determine their identity amid expectations that they might be mummies of cubs, leopards, cheetahs or tigers.

What a great Christmas gift to unwrap

The deep Sea will eventually reveal much more!

Also in Egypt:

So you'll report on cat mummies, but not on Epstein's crimes and those of his evil Democrat clients?

I guess the whole “Rest in Peace” is out poor dead people and animals!! This is disgusting

This is amazing!

Now to keep the Islamic militants from destroying it.

I need a scholarly explanation for a juvenile question:

Are these things reproducible today?

To think that Egypt was so advanced and powerful back then, and now they just struggle for survival.

😬😬

Egypts only claim to fame is grave digging. must be sad knowing that your best times were 5,000+ years ago

This looks very bad, very bad ! This is really and honestly Fake News ! To Gaslight Americans to believe Egyptians were into dogs like Americans having dogs on car commercials ! This is an all time low for Journalism !

Why is this and the find of all the mummies 3 months ago not grave robbing and against the law?

One of the most interesting posts that I have seen lately. What a gift to Egypt, as it will refine their tourism (perfect for educating the world on rich history). It's a great reminder that life has been going on long before the 2000s. Bring history back to culture! PRFall2019

Lots of kitties.
