This undated photo released by the Egyptian Supreme Council of Antiquities on Sunday, May 23, 2010, shows a tomb discovered in Lahoun, near Fayoum, some 70 miles (100 kilometers) south of Cairo, in Egypt. The Supreme Council of Antiquities says archeologists have unearthed 57 ancient Egyptian tombs, most of them containing a painted wooden sarcophagus with a mummy inside, with the oldest tombs dating back to around 2750 B.C. and twelve of the tombs belonging to the 18th dynasty which ruled Egypt during the second millennium B.C

It is great to see our forefathers, 200 generations back (!!!!, 4 in hundred years, ie. 40 in a millenium and 200 in 5 millenia..) live respectfully and bury their dead with respect and adoration ..
