23 statues and precious objects uncovered in the Ptah Temple at Karnak « CFEETK – Centre Franco-Égyptien d'Étude des Temples de Karnak – SCA / USR 3172 CNRS

23 statues and precious objects uncovered in the Ptah Temple at Karnak « CFEETK – Centre Franco-Égyptien d'Étude des Temples de Karnak – SCA / USR 3172 CNRS: In continuation of the research leading to the discovery of a limestone sphinx last week, archaeologists of the French-Egyptian Centre for the Study of Karnak temples have unearthed 23 new statuettes and other small precious items to the east of the Ptah temple at Karnak.



I must admit I have always suspected that area north of Karnak was potential the source of interesting things as the ground level was 2-3 foot above the path and flooring.
