Head Physician tomb discovered in Abu Sir.

The Czech mission directed by Dr. Miroslav Barta working in Abu Sir discovered the tomb of the head physician of Upper and Lower Egypt.  

The tomb owner called Shepseskafankh who lived during the 5th dynasty. The tomb is 21x14 meters and a hight of 4 meters. The tomb walls are of limestone.

A huge fake door was found at the Eastern side of the offerings hall bears inscriptions of the titles and jobs of the deceased. 

Shepseskafankh titles include Ra priest in the Sum temples for few of the 5th dynasty Kings, the magic priest and God Khnoum priest at the house of life.
