Archaeologists made an exciting discovery in Saqqara, Egypt, 25 km south of Cairo. They found a 4,000-year-old tomb of Prince Waser-If-Re from the Old Kingdom's Fifth Dynasty. The tomb features an enormous pink granite door measuring nearly 14 feet tall and over three feet wide. This door did not open but served a symbolic spiritual purpose. False doors in ancient Egypt allowed the spirits of the dead to move freely. Prince Waser-If-Re held many important titles such as hereditary prince, royal scribe, vizier, judge, and chanting priest. His tomb contained many unusual pink granite furniture items, including thirteen high-back chairs with seated statues thought to be his wives. Some chairs were missing heads. Pink granite was rare and expensive, mainly used for royal palaces. The tomb also held a second entrance topped by the cartouche of King Neferirkare, linking the site to royal power. Other finds include a black granite fallen statue over four feet tall and a red granite offering table with ritual sacrifice inscriptions. These show the tomb was also a place for ongoing rituals. Later, during Egypt’s 26th Dynasty, the tomb was reused. Archaeologists found statues and inscriptions from this later period. This shows the tomb’s lasting importance over centuries. Surprisingly, statues of King Djoser, his wife, and their ten daughters were moved here from Djoser’s nearby step pyramid chamber. Experts, including Zahi Hawass, are still investigating why these royal statues were relocated. Excavations will continue to uncover more about the tomb’s history, religious use, and political significance. This find gives fresh insight into the funerary culture of ancient Egypt’s Old Kingdom and its long-lasting legacy.
