I grew up near Saqqara (few miles away). It's amazing that there are still things to be discovered there. We would actually often hear that artifacts would be discovered and just sold/smuggled. But i guess there is just so much stuff buried near and around Saqqara that there is still more to discover.

It’s the same in Roma or Napoli. Despite thousands of years of literal looting, there is still loads of amazing stuff buried underneath.
