Cool On the Find

As for the seven locals who discovered the ancient temple, Egypt’s police arrested them for the illegal excavation and the area has now been declared an archaeological site under the control of the Ministry of Antiquities which will continue work on the site.

Not cool on the Arrests ! They should be thanked imo
otherwise it would still be unknown.

If I lived there, I'd be Tunneling....
Directly Towards Giza
