In the middle of the vast desert between the colossal pyramids of Saqqara and Abusir (Egypt) a team of scientists are looking for the lost tomb of a priest who lived 4000 years ago.A century of sediment covering it after its first discovery poses a challenge for the archaeologists to locate its exact position in a sea of sand.These photos document the journey of archaeology when starting from scratch with the only help of old and not very precise maps as the only data available.After weeks of relentlessly digging, a stone corner appeared.Will it be the tomb of the priest?Only time will tell.
