A sealed massive sarcophagus made of black granite has been discovered in Egypt.

Referred to around the world as the ‘cradle of civilization’, Egypt has been a literal crypt of historical secrets.

The newest discovery from beneath the cradle came in the form of a massive sarcophagus, constructed from black granite.

Local authorities, in the Sidi Gaber district of Alexandria, came across the tomb during a routine archeological dig for a new building construction site.

Measured at 72.8 inches by 104.3 inches by 65 inches, the coffin is the largest one ever to be unearthed in the city.
