Archaeologists have unveiled a 4,100-year-old tomb belonging to a physician who treated the Egyptian Pharaohs.
The tomb was found in the southern part of Saqqara, Egypt, belonging to Teti Neb Fu dating back to King Pepi II's reign of the Old Kingdom, according to the Egyptian Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities.
In a Facebook post, the Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities shared photos showing the intricate carvings and lively artwork.
Although there is evidence of ancient looting on burial grounds from that time period, Fu's tomb remains intact, according to the Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities.
In addition to the tomb, a stone sarcophagus was discovered bearing inscriptions with the physician's name and titles.
