The discovery of a 3,000-year-old city that was lost to the sands has been hailed as one of the most important archaeological finds in recent Egyptology.

Uncovered in 2020, this ancient Egyptian settlement, known as Aten, has left experts amazed at the preservation of buildings and artefacts. Egyptologists hope further investigation will answer important questions about life during the reign of one of Egypt's most powerful pharaohs, Amenhotep III.
