Scientists testing new scanning technology discover mysterious structure beneath an ancient Egyptian city
Archaeologists working in Egypt's Nile Delta may have discovered a tomb or temple dating back around 2,600 years while testing a new technology designed to locate structures buried deep beneath the surface. The team was studying the Buto (Tell el-Fara'in) site, the ruins of an ancient city that was occupied from the Predynastic period (around 3800 BCE) to the Early Islamic era (7th century CE).
