Rare pink statue of ancient Egypt's King Ramses II with 'Ka' symbol unearthed near Giza

Ramses II ruled during Egypt's 19th dynasty, between 1279 and 1213 B.C. According to National Geographic, he had more children and built more monuments than any other pharoah. He was also involved in several successful military campaigns into the Levant. Because of his long, successful reign, he is often called Ramses the Great. He is thought to have died at the age of 90 and was buried in the Valley of the Kings.

The statue of Ramses II depicts him in the form of"Elka." This is a"symbol of strength, vitality and spirit," the Ministry said. On the back pillar, the name Ramses is engraved as Nakht Mari Maat, which means"strong bull," the statement notes. The statue is 1.8 feet wide and 1.4 feet thick. Ramses II is depicted wearing a wig and a crown, with the Ka sign.

The statue and the blocks that were discovered alongside have been taken to a museum so they can be restored and preserved. Archaeologists working at the site also found pink granite and limestone inscriptions depicting the god Ptah—the god of craftsmen and architects who was married to Sekhmet, the warrior goddess. According to the Ministry, artefacts relating to Ramses may have been part of the Temple of Ptah.
