Archaeologists in Egypt have uncovered a village with remains that predate the pharaohs by around 2,000 years.
Egypt’s Ministry of Antiquities said that the Neolithic site was discovered in Tell el-Samara, about 87 miles north of Cairo. Chief archaeologist Frederic Gio said his team found silos containing animal bones and food, indicating human habitation as early as 5,000 B.C. Pottery and stone tools were also found.
The pharaonic era began around 3,000 B.C. and the Giza pyramids were built 500 years later.
