(dpa) During construction work in Palmachim on the Mediterranean, an excavator uncovered the stone-hewn complex from the time of the Egyptian pharaoh Ramses II, the Israel Antiquities Authority said on Sunday. An archaeologist descended a ladder into the chamber and found dozens of untouched burial objects there. These include pottery, cooking pots, storage containers, arrowheads and spearheads.
