Secrets of The Egyptian MASTABA of Ty. Exploring Saqqara 2024

Let's go inside one of the best preserved tombs of the "Age of the Pyramids"! The mastaba of Ty or the mastaba of Ti. Although it is not one of the frequently visited tombs of Saqqara, and most itineraries to this largest necropolis in Egypt skip it, it is one of the most archaeologically important sites in Saqqara.

The mastaba of one of the highest officials of the 5th dynasty of the Old Kingdom contains amazing reliefs that are not only well-preserved despite the passage of over four thousand years but are also a gold mine of information about the lives of not only the richest but also ordinary ancient Egyptians.

What exactly do they represent? What does the tomb look like, and what does its incredible splendor symbolize? Why do we call the fourth dynasty the Golden Age of Egypt, whereas the next dynasty after the well-known times of Khufu, Khafre, or Menkaure (even though their pharaohs also built pyramids) is much less known today?
You will learn all this in today's episode.
Are you ready?
Let's go!
