埃及官方于周日表示，考古学家在埃及南部城市卢克索附近发现一座拥有3000年历史的古墓，这是一系列考古发现中的最新一例，埃及官员希望借此推动旅游业发展。
据埃及旅游和文物部消息，这座古墓被确认属于一名名为帕泽尔（Paser）的男子，由荷兰莱顿大学的考古队在卢克索西岸的谢赫阿卜杜勒古尔纳墓地发现。考古团队将致力于确认墓中安葬者的身份并深入了解他们的生平。
专家根据墓内铭文的艺术风格推断，这座古墓可追溯至拉美西斯时期，即埃及第19和第20王朝。
他们补充道，该古墓位于一处已知墓葬遗址的东侧，遵循了新王国时期（公元前1570年至公元前1069年）底比斯私人墓葬的传统布局。
古墓由一处开放庭院通往一座呈倒“T”字形的岩石开凿礼拜堂，地下还设有多个墓室。
考古学家在庭院中发现了多件保存完好的建筑构件，包括一座用于安放丧葬石碑的泥砖台，以及两侧带有斜坡通道、通往入口的阶梯。
墓室内，刻有帕泽尔名字的铭文描绘了他在神龛中祭拜多位神祇，以及与妻子一同坐在供桌前的场景。
考古团队表示，将继续开展记录和研究工作，以确定墓中安葬者的身份，并更好地了解这座古墓的历史与考古背景。
此次发现正值埃及致力于通过推广新考古发现来提振旅游业之际，旅游业是该国外汇的重要来源。
卢克索拥有众多世界最重要的古代遗迹和考古遗址。据旅游和文物部介绍，此次新发现是2018年启动的一项持续研究项目的一部分。
去年，同样在卢克索附近，一座属于法老的大型古墓在经过20多年的修复后对游客重新开放。这座古墓内有阿蒙霍特普三世的壁画——其统治时期为公元前1390年至公元前1350年——以及一众古埃及神祇的形象。
同样在今年的埃及，在地中海岸附近的北部布海拉省，考古学家表示他们在一座距今2300多年的希腊罗马墓地遗址中发现了文物。这些文物展现了六个多世纪以来丧葬习俗的演变。
Archaeologists uncover 3,000-year-old tomb near Egypt’s Luxor

Archaeologists uncovered a 3,000-year-old tomb near the southern Egyptian city of Luxor, authorities said on Sunday, the latest in a series of discoveries that officials hope will boost tourism.
The tomb, identified as belonging to a man named Paser, was found by a Dutch archaeological mission from Leiden University in the Sheikh Abd el-Qurna necropolis on Luxor’s West Bank, according to Egypt’s tourism and antiquities ministry. The team of archeologists will work to identify people buried there and learn more about them.
Specialists believe the tomb dates to the Ramesside period, which spans Egypt’s 19th and 20th dynasties, based on the artistic style of its inscriptions.
Located east of a previously known burial site, the tomb follows the traditional layout of private Theban tombs from the New Kingdom (1570-1069 BC), they added.
It consists of an open courtyard leading to a rock-cut chapel shaped like an inverted “T”, with burial chambers carved beneath ground level.
Archaeologists found several well-preserved architectural elements in the courtyard, including a mudbrick bench designed to hold a funerary stela and a staircase flanked by sloping ramps leading to the entrance.
Inside, inscriptions bearing Paser’s name depict him worshipping various deities inside shrines, as well as seated with his wife before an offering table.
The excavation team said further documentation and study will continue in order to determine who was buried in the tomb and to better understand its historical and archaeological context.
The discovery comes as Egypt seeks to promote new archaeological finds to support tourism, a key source of foreign currency for the country.
Luxor is home to some of the world’s most significant ancient monuments and archaeological sites. The recent discovery is part of a research project that’s been ongoing since 2018, according to the tourism and antiquities ministry.
Last year, also near Luxor, a large tomb belonging to a pharaoh was reopened to visitors after more than 20 years of renovation. That tomb features paintings of Amenhotep III, who ruled ancient Egypt between 1390 B.C. and 1350 B.C., along with a group of ancient Egyptian gods.
Also this year in Egypt, in the northern Beheira province, near the Mediterranean coast, archaeologists said they’d found artifacts in part of a Greco-Roman cemetery that dates back more than 2,300 years. The artifacts show the evolution of funerary practices over some six centuries.
