Archaeologists have discovered an intact burial cave containing dozens of artifacts dating back to the time of the Egyptian pharaoh Ramesses II.

The discovery of space, described by officials as "frozen in time", was made by accident when an excavator struck the roof of the structure at a beach in Palmahim National Park.

The burial site contains dozens of pieces of intact pottery and bronze vessels, pots and bowls of various types, cooking vessels and oil lamps. There were also very small vessels that had contained tiny amounts of valuable substances.

Archaeologists have also unearthed tools of war, such as bronze arrowheads and spearheads. ..
