The Department of Antiquities has announced the discovery of an ancient Greek tombstone in the northern cemetery of Cyrene (Shahat), uncovered after flooding from Storm Daniel.
Authorities launched an emergency excavation after reports of the artifact surfaced on social media. The limestone tombstone has since been recovered, and further excavation at the site is underway.
Officials urged the public to report such discoveries directly to heritage authorities before sharing them online to ensure proper preservation.
