Excavating Mummies from the Largest Egyptian Necropolis I SLICE HISTORY | FULL DOCUMENTARY
As of the start of their mission in Saqqara, Zahi Hawass and his team of Egyptian scientists get the impression that their excavation zone will be extremely rich. After digging over forty shafts, they finally unearth the Grail: dozens of sarcophagi dating from the New Kingdom and the Late Period of Ancient Egypt that will need to be scanned and maybe even opened.
But there are more surprises in store. Inside, the people have been buried with sometimes unexpected secrets. Thanks to forensic science techniques, the team travels back in time and brings to life the people who lived here, in Ancient Egypt, over three thousand years ago.

Just like their belief that saqqara can be excavated but pyramid and sphinx excavations have be banned and blocked for over 60 years. Saqqara was a tomb, it says so. Pyramids and sphinx were written as library underground by many ancient writers, but cannot be excavated, why? Wtf and who is in control of these things ffs😢 I’ve been their and many amazing and paying extra money always gets you behind the gates, why we just still guessing and letting these idiots and basically grave robbers write history as they feel reflects their education or position and do not question anything out of place. Look at the 40000 vases made of stone, one effing piece, all different kinds, even dolomiteand granite, yet me can’t do today with as much precision. I’ve researched and seen them in person and the so called experts call them water gases, pathetic, these things are an enigma, you have to ultrasound them to see the perfection. Yet these idiots say that even though they only found 40 thousand, which is baffling amount, they call them simple constructions. The pyramid is closer than any other structure on the earth, even with our technology today 2023 with true north. It’s placed exactly in the Center of all the earth masses ( continents). Pretty much way smarter obviously than our present humans. And lasted for thousands of years, from jungle Egypt to desert Egypt. Hell, which today the earth mostly has become in comparison, modern humans have wrecked the entire globe in less than 200 years since Industrial Revolution. Research and touch them yourself, anything and everything, and maybe ask a few questions?😂 Who doesn’t question anything? Sheeple that’s who If you don’t question and blindly agree, you lose all the power in your beliefs when shit hits the fan or doesn’t bend to your imaginary illusion of will.
Ancient Egyptians were really concerned about their afterlife that they just dedicated their whole life for it.

I wonder just how many bodoes are buried out there that are left from the ravages of time? They have been burying there at Saqqara since the Pyramids were being built up to the Ptolemaic dynasty,thats thousands of years of time! This documentary was very informative and showed great access to the opening of these coffins and in depth look. Very impressive
They way they are handling these priceless artefacts makes my stomach twist Also i would use a hoover to get rid of sand. faster and a bit safer

You would use a *Hoover* too get rid of the sand more quickly? Yet you can sit there and claim the way they’re “handling these priceless artifacts makes you twist”… Do you realize how many of “Priceless Artifacts” would be destroyed by your Hoovering, because they are all mixed into that sand at different levels/layers? You’re a hypocrite if you actually truly think that. You’d be destroying more than than these professionally trained scientists in 15 minutes, with your “Hoover”. So next time keep your uniformed opinions to yourself and leave the work to the actual professionals who literally trained years for this job. And I don’t mean a 5 year Bachelors or Masters Degree either. Ok? Thanks. 🤦🏻♀️

The bushes they use on the top of the coffins are not a typical paint brush.They are made from fine soft fibers. Also in delicate areas they small hand held air blowers . The reasons why they don’t use any vacuum types are numerous. Even a small vacuums my Suction my dislodge paint or pieces of text damaging them . Or it may suction up a fine piece of jewelry.A vacuum hose is cumbersome and maybe dropped . Also vacuums exhaust Will add extra unwanted heat and Will disturb more sand and dust then it will remove.

What a magnificent documentary.
I think it’s amazing that we have this treasure trove of historical artifacts & incredibly preserved remains to discover & learn about the past from! Anyone who says to leave them be does not appreciate the extraordinary gift the ancient Egyptians unknowingly left for us! We can learn so much about history that we never would have known otherwise. And those who were forgotten millennia ago are now being rediscovered & remembered! I used to want to be cremated when I die, but now I want to be buried in the hopes that someday far into the future, my remains will be found & possibly provide knowledge & insight into this time.

When they were originally buried the tombs were out in the open (think Hatshepsut’s tomb), but got buried by the blowing sands of time. Quite literally. They were meant to be remembered so as not to be lost in the afterlife. Next I suggest you know what you’re talking about before trying to talk about it…

Agreed. He is not my favorite person either
Even though its a child mummy its probably older then all of them combined
"reknowned" - "more like "Infamous".
4:39 One should show every respect for the child, since it so sad the child died so young. It actually makes me feel like I am going to cry, and although the child’s religion was not the same as those we have now, obviously He loves the child. "And [God] created you from one soul and created from it its mate that he [ʾĀdam] might dwell in security with her. And when he covers her, she carries a light burden and continues therein. And when it becomes heavy, they both invoke Allah, their Lord, "If You should give us a good [child], we will surely be among the grateful.” -- Quar’an Chapter 6 verse 164.
Concerning handling. They do need preservation but not sure about the process.

I know the 💩is involved but it’s not really his dig. It’s Dr. Waziri’s dig and Waziri is one of his previous students, so he hero worships Hawass. It’s how he got reinstated as an Archaeologist. In fact now that I think about it that’s probably how Waziri “found” the site. Originally Hawass found the site back before he got the boot and covered it back up. I figure he knew his days were numbered and he wanted to use it as his ticket back in 🙄. I don’t know if he knew Waziri would replace him or if he just got lucky on that one, but he definitely hit the jackpot and must have given it over to the guy. 🤷🏻♀️
