In 1964 in the ancient necropolis of Saqqara, Egyptian archaeologist Ahmed Moussa discovered
a series oftombs with rock-cut passages in the escarpment facing the causeway that lead to the pyramid of Unas.
Soon after the Chief Inspector Mounir Basta reported crawling on his hands and knees through the passages, entering one of the Old Kingdom tombs.

He was impressed with its unique scenes of two men in intimate embrace, something he had never seen before in all the Saqqara tombs.
Meanwhile archaeologists working on the restoration of the causeway of Unas discovered that some of the stone blocks that had been used to build the causeway had been appropriated in ancient times from the mastaba that had originally served as the entrance to this newly discovered tomb. The archaeologists reconstructed the mastaba using the inscribed blocks found in the substructure of the causeway.
It was revealed that this unique tomb had been built for two men to cohabit and that both shared identical titles in the palace of King Niuserre of the Fifth Dynasty: "OVERSEER OF THE MANICURISTS IN THE PALACE OF THE KING."
To take a tour of the tomb and to see some of the remarkable representations of these two men click below on the icon of the manicurists.

We live in a time of careful egyptology. Gone are the days of shovels and hurry; now the hero of the archaeological site is the trowel and brush, with every cup of waste dirt sieved carefully through metal screens. Every item, no matter how insignificant a shard of pottery or broken mud-brick, is documented and sketched, photographed and recorded before the next centimetre of dirt can be removed. As such, discoveries are slow, sometimes excruciatingly so. But also gone are the days of lost data in the haste to uncover colossal statues and dig up stunning museum pieces. However, the archaeological history of Tell el-Amarna, not always so carefully executed, is a good story, full of intrigue, mystery and excitement.
