Amr Nabil

Muslims circumambulate the Kaaba during the hajj in August 2019. Every Muslim who is financially and physically able to complete the pilgrimage is expected to do so in their lifetimes.

Workers disinfect the plaza around the Kaaba, the holiest site in Islam, at the Grand Mosque in Mecca, Saudi Arabia in March 2020. The Saudi Arabian government has just announced that it will greatly restrict the annular pilgrimage to Mecca this year.

Niches in the tomb hold statues of the priest as well as his family.

Mostafa Waziri, secretary general of the Supreme Council of Antiquities, shows off the small statues in niches that appear at the base of a wall.

An Egyptian team, including head worker Mustafa Abdo, uncovered this finely decorated tomb of a priest.
