Abusir, Egypt

Kids drive home goats in Abusir, Egypt, near the undisturbed tomb of an Egyptian priest. “Located several miles south of the Pyramids at Giza, Abusir’s smaller pyramids mark the burials of forgotten kings and queens of the 5th dynasty (2470-2350 B.C.). Here also is a cemetery of shaft tombs from the sixth century B.C., when the Persians invaded Egypt.”
