2000-Year-Old Coffin Made Of Stone Discovered In Egypt, See Reactions (Photos) by Explorers(m): 7:51am On Jul 15, 2018
A sealed massive sarcophagus made of black granite has been discovered in Egypt.




Referred to around the world as the ‘cradle of civilization’, Egypt has been a literal crypt of historical secrets.

The newest discovery from beneath the cradle came in the form of a massive sarcophagus, constructed from black granite.

Local authorities, in the Sidi Gaber district of Alexandria, came across the tomb during a routine archeological dig for a new building construction site.

Measured at 72.8 inches by 104.3 inches by 65 inches, the coffin is the largest one ever to be unearthed in the city.

It has not been opened in 2,000 years and nobody knows what’s inside.


The tomb was found 16 feet below the ground in Sidi Gaber, Alexandria when an excavation team was inspecting the land for new building plans

An alabaster head was also found near the sarcophagus and is believed to be a depiction of the owner of the tomb.

Civilization indeed started in Egypt.




Since they've gone as far as unearthing It, they should then complete what they have started by opening it...

Interesting! I've read all about Howard Carter's expeditions in Egypt, esp on the discovery of Tut's tomb.

I'll follow this one in real time. Hopefully, social media is immune to the curse of the Pharaohs.@Explorers

Great Egypt, the pride of Africa. No wonder the whites wrote bad things about Africa's pride in their Holy Books just to discredit us. But the wise one knows that Israel had nothing to offer other than fictious tales to make them great, but great works with evidences actually can be found in Africa.

Talk of the great pyramids, pls what has Israel has to offer other than books of lies to make them appear great.

Because the whites came in the name of religion to eradicate our heritage and made them forgotten.. And because blacks were so foolish to sell themselves off as slaves. While we read their books, they stole our lands. They said your ancestors are demonic and you believed them while you worship their own version of holy ancestors, you call their lands holy lands.

They have your artifacts and ancient codes

They wrote you histories for you and an average religious black man believes his ancestors originated from Israel or Middle East in the name of Adam and eve.

That question should never be directed at the Egyptians. Sane people know they had extraterrestrial help back in those days. They had access to technology way ahead of their time temporarily.


Oyinbo people will still open that sarcophagus.

HOW PEOPLE HAVE BEEN LIVING IN AFRICA FOR THOUSANDS OF YEARS WHILE THE BIBLE SAYS HUMANITY STARTED WITH ADAM AND EVE JUST 6,000 YEARS AGO IS COMPLETELY ABSURD.

THE REMAINS OF KING TUTANKHAMEN OF EGYPT WHO DIED 4000 YEARS AGO IS STILL ON DISPLAY IN THE HISTORY MUSEUM.

(LET'S PRETEND DENTISTRY DIDN'T EXIST IN ITALY 13 THOUSAND YEARS AGO).
