Ptolemaic tomb discovered in Egypt with paintings detailing Egyptian life from that era

A Ptolemaic tomb that was built for a man named Tutu and his wife has now been discovered in Egypt. Egypt’s never ending gifts from the old-world continues with this all new discovery. The tomb was actually discovered last October when smugglers were illegally digging and the authorities found out about it.
According to reports, Egyptian Minister of Antiquities said in a statement that tomb dates back to the Ptolemaic era which spans between 305 BC and 30 BC. The spot where the Egyptian tomb has been discovered is south of Cairo, in a place called Sohag.
The tomb has its wall painted that depicts a funeral procession and there are also images of the owner who is working in the fields, alongside written in hieroglyphics of his family genealogy.

According to reports, the colourful tomb consists of a central lobby, burial room with two stone coffins, and the lobby has been divided into two. The tomb is complete with several images as mentioned earlier; some other images are of that Tutu giving and receiving gifts before gods and goddesses. The images also include one with Tutu’s wife, Ta-Shirit-Iziz.

Inside the tomb there are two mummies, that of a woman aged 35-50, and a boy aged 12-14. These two were on display outside the burial chamber.
