🌄🔍 **Cleopatra's Enigmatic Tomb: Lost in the Sands of Time** 🏛️🔮

By Jude Obuseh

The tantalizing legend of Cleopatra VII and her lover Mark Antony, entwined in life and death, has left historians and archaeologists with a beguiling mystery. Ancient accounts, including those of the writer Plutarch, have mentioned their joint burial in a "lofty and beautiful" tomb, adorned with treasures beyond imagination.

The specific location of this illustrious tomb, however, has eluded discovery. In 2010, Egypt's former antiquities minister, Zahi Hawass, embarked on excavations near Alexandria at a site known as Taposiris Magna, which boasts a collection of tombs dating back to Cleopatra VII's era. 


While these excavations uncovered various historical artifacts and insights, Cleopatra's tomb remained elusive. Archaeologists have pondered the possibility that, even if it does exist, the tomb may have been plundered to the point of being indistinguishable.

Cleopatra's final resting place, like the queen herself, remains veiled in the sands of history, awaiting the day when its secrets may be unveiled. 🏺🔍🌅

By Jude Obuseh  History often surprises us with the most unexpected discoveries. In 1972, during an excavation in an ancient Viking settlement in York, England, archaeologists unearthed an object that would later be recognized as one of the strangest and most valuable finds in Viking history. However, this was not a treasure of gold, weapons, or ancient artifacts—it was a massive, fossilized piece of human excrement. The Lloyds Bank Coprolite: A Unique Archaeological Find This extraordinary discovery, now famously known as the Lloyds Bank Coprolite, was found at the site of what is now a Lloyds Bank branch in York. Measuring 20 centimeters (8 inches) in length and 5 centimeters (2 inches) in width, it holds the record as the largest known human feces ever discovered. Even more remarkable is its age, estimated to be around 1,200 years old, dating back to the 9th century when Vikings inhabited the region.
