PARIS, Feb 3: French archaeologists here announced the discovery of a tomb, believed to be of a high-level functionary of the Akhenaton dynasty going back to some fourteen centuries before Christ, on Sunday.
First reports from Egypt indicate that the tomb belongs to Raiay, a scribe who worked for the Egyptian treasury of his day, who was sufficiently important for his tomb to have several chambers, all of which, are said to be highly ornate.
However, Raiay’s sarcophagus is nowhere to be found, there is no explanation why such a richly endowed burial site does not contain the remains of the person for whom it was built.
