At around ten o'clock in the morning, Ye Tian took David, Joshua and others to a hill on the outskirts of Luxor and looked towards the Nile River not far away and the direction of the Valley of the Kings.
After two days of trekking, the three-party joint exploration team arrived at Luxor in the middle reaches of the Nile River yesterday afternoon. After resting for a night in Luxor, they launched the exploration operation this morning.
Luxor is a famous ancient Egyptian city located in the middle reaches of the Nile River. It is one of the most important cities in the Nile Valley.
Thebes, the capital of ancient Egypt, is located here. It is the center of ancient Thebes cultural relics and is known as the 'largest open-air museum' on earth.
Thebes is a capital city built during the Middle Kingdom and New Kingdom of ancient Egypt (2040 BC to 1071 BC). It has a history of more than 4,000 years.
According to historical records, Thebes at that time had hundreds of city gates, was densely populated, had vast buildings, and was extremely prosperous. It was the largest city in the world and was known as the "City of a Hundred Gates." The Arabs once It is praised as a 'palace-like city'.
Pharaohs of all ages built a large number of temples, palaces and tombs in Thebes, which are breathtaking in their grand scale and exquisite craftsmanship.
However, as thousands of years have passed, most of the magnificent palaces and temples have become obsolete. However, from the remaining temple ruins, the tombs of emperors and nobles, and the tombs of nobles, we can still imagine the magnificent style of Thebes in its heyday.
The famous Valley of the Kings is located just west of Luxor, west of Thebes, about seven kilometers from the west bank of the Nile.
It is densely covered with tombs of many pharaohs from the 18th to 20th dynasties of the New Dynasty of ancient Egypt, as well as a large number of noble tombs. The famous Tutankhamen's tomb and treasures were discovered in the Valley of the Kings.
In the ancient Egyptian period, as slaves and shepherds of the Pharaoh, the ancestors of the Israelites lived mainly in the Nile Delta of Lower Egypt, but there were also several settlements in Thebes of Upper Egypt.
These locations are all located on the outskirts of Thebes. When the ancestors of the Israelites lived here, they also built some temple-like buildings and had their own gods to worship.
After ancient Israel was destroyed by the Neo-Babylonian Kingdom, some of the Israelites who escaped from Jerusalem returned to the land where their ancestors once lived, after traveling several times.
Another point is that the Queen of Sheba went to Jerusalem several times to meet King Solomon, and Menelik I passed here and stayed here when he escaped from Jerusalem and fled back to Ethiopia.
Because of this, the three-party joint exploration team came to Luxor to explore the legendary Solomon's Treasure and the Ark of the Covenant!
At this time, the hill where Ye Tian and the others were standing was one of the former settlements for the ancestors of the Israelites.
It is a pity that after thousands of years, due to the double erosion of time and wind and sand, the several temples that originally stood on this hill have only a few short sections of stone walls left. The wall doesn't even count.
At this point, it is still unclear whether they were built by the ancestors of the Israelites, the ancient Egyptians, or the later ancient Greeks and Romans!
As for the dwellings of the Israelite ancestors, just like their people, they have long since turned into yellow sand and are nowhere to be found!
Standing on the top of the hill, Ye Tian and the others could only see the Nile River flowing quietly in the distance and the ships traveling on the river, but they could not see the famous Valley of the Kings at all. They could only imagine it!
After looking into the wind for a moment, Ye Tian finally retracted his gaze, turned around and looked at everyone present.
"Gentlemen, let's get started. I hope to gain something. I also hope that the ancestors of the Israelites or the ancient Egyptians have hidden something here, or at least left a hint!
Even if we can't find the legendary Solomon's Treasure and the Ark of the Covenant, if we can find a pharaoh's tomb similar to Tutankhamen's treasure, then our trip will be worthwhile! ”
"Hahaha"
There was a burst of laughter and everyone laughed.
"A pharaoh's tomb that looks like Tutankhamen's treasure? Steven, your ambition is too great!"
"Wow! If we really find such a pharaoh's tomb, it will definitely shock the whole world!"
After some discussion, everyone took action individually to prepare for the upcoming joint exploration operation.
Ye Tianze walked towards many employees of the brave and fearless exploration company, preparing to assign work to his employees.
As he approached, he glanced at these guys first, then smiled and said loudly:
“Guys, just like previous exploration operations, we are divided into several groups and use pulse metal detectors to scan the ancient ruins thoroughly to see if we can find anything.
If you find metal objects buried deep underground and you are not sure what they are, remember to notify me immediately so that I can take a look at the situation and decide whether to dig and explore.
Compared to the Pyramid of Apophis I located deep in the Sahara, this place is undoubtedly much safer. There is no need to worry about mines and traps, but everyone still needs to be careful and look out for each other.
After scanning the hill thoroughly, if nothing is found, except for a few people who will follow me to check out the ruins, the rest can rest and wait to go to the next place to explore! ”
Next, Ye Tian said a few more words before finishing the work arrangements.
Afterwards, everyone freely combined and divided into several groups. Then they took out pulse metal detectors from the metal suitcases, quickly assembled them, and then started exploring!
In the blink of an eye, these exploration teams dispersed, each holding a pulse metal detector, like a mine-clearing unit, and began to carefully scan the hill.
Ye Tianze led a few people to a section of low stone wall to study the condition of that section of stone wall to see if it was the site of a temple built by the ancestors of the Israelites!
While everyone was starting to explore, more and more people came to the bottom of this small hill, and the few flat areas under the hill were completely filled in a short time. !
Fortunately, the Egyptian police were well prepared. They specially designated several visiting areas and set up cordons, which effectively controlled the order at the scene.
Among the crowds watching the excitement, there are not only local residents of Luxor, but also many tourists from all over the world, explorers, treasure hunting enthusiasts, experts and scholars from all walks of life, etc.
There are also many guys who came all the way to follow the three-party joint exploration team for Solomon's treasure and the Ark of the Covenant. Every pair of eyes is full of greed and jealousy.
Of course, there are many media reporters on site, both from Egypt and from major news media around the world!
The scene was like a press conference. These guys held up their cameras and video cameras and kept shooting at the top of the mountain!
As the three-party joint exploration team took action, these guys who were watching the excitement at the bottom of the mountain suddenly became orgasmic!
"Guys, what do you think is hidden under this hill? Could it be a magnificent pyramid? Just like the Pyramid of Apophis I hidden under the sand dunes!"
"It's such a shame. My family has lived in Luxor for generations. Why didn't I think of coming to this hill to look for treasures? I regret it!"
While these guys were talking about it, the joint exploration team on the top of the mountain had already discovered something.
"Steven, come and take a look at this stone. There are some very interesting things carved on it!"
An archaeologist from Columbia University said loudly, with a rather excited tone!
