"4,000-Year-Old Egyptian Manuscript Found" (HISTORY - Barbara Maranzani, September 14, 2015)
Quote:
"A Belgium-based Egyptologist has rediscovered the oldest known Egyptian leather manuscript, dating back more than 4,000 years to late Old Kingdom and early Middle Kingdom (2300-2000 B.C.). The manuscript, which measures 8.2 feet long, had been locked up in storage at the Egyptian Museum in Cairo since shortly before the outbreak of World War II. ..."

Greetings, Lutz.

Hi Lutz, after a long time!

Very interesting text about new manuscript. I am always happy when the new texts are found. That mean that we can know more about Ancient Egyptians! Smile
