Tomb of Amenemopet
The tomb of a New Kingdom official has been found at Dra Abu el Naga on the west bank of the Nile at Luxor. Excavators have apparently found one or more mummies in the tomb. The tomb continues to be cleared and cleaned. A few photos can be found here (click on the "previous" link above the photo).
I have worked in the securities industry for more than thirty years and founded a consulting firm (ASJ International, Inc.) in the financial services industry in 2009. I also trade stocks and options.
I have a B.A. in Middle Eastern Studies from City University of New York and have been studying the Ancient Near East for over 40 years. I was formerly the Secretary of the Egyptological Seminar of New York and have lectured there and at City University of New York. I can read Akkadian, Sumerian and Ancient Egyptian.
