FAIYUM, EGYPT (INTELLIHUB) — So far over 1,700 mummified bodies, of an estimated 1 million, have been unearthed in a necropolis South of Cairo.
It appears the mummies are approximately 1,500-years-old, buried during the time when Rome control vast swaths of Egypt.
However, the discovery has scientists scratching their heads as the literally have no explanation of where all of the bodies came from.
At least one body was reported to be more than 7ft. tall.
