New pyramids found in Egypt
Visitors to Egypt may soon be able to see another ancient site - as archaeologists have discovered a pair of 4,300-year-old tombs.
The crypts - uncovered at Saqqara, 12 miles south of Cairo - were built for high officials, according to reports.
Furthermore, more discoveries could be on the way, according to comments made by Egypt's antiquities chief Zahi Hawass.
"The discovery of the two tombs are the beginning of a big, large cemetery," he explained.
Around 70 percent of Egypt's antiquities are still buried by sand, yet to be discovered by archaeologists, Mr Hawass added.
People planning a backpacking trip to the north African country still have plenty see, however, such as the pyramids and the Sphinx of Giza and the bustling streets of Cairo.
The capital also boasts the Egyptian Museum, which displays a huge collection of ancient artifacts including items discovered the tomb of the boy king Tutankhamun.
