Egyptian archaeologists have discovered 17 mummies in desert catacombs in Minya province, the antiquities1 ministry2 announced Saturday. Archaeologists found the non-royal mummies in a series of corridors after following the trail of burial shafts3 in the district of the central Egyptian province. For the cash-strapped Egyptian government, the discoveries are a boon4 from the country's glorious past as it struggles to attract tourists scared off by a series of 1slamist militant5 attacks.

Archaeologist: 考古学家
Mummy:木乃伊
