BREAKING NEWS – Cairo, Egypt – For the past 30 years, scientists have been exploring a cemetery in Egypt whose origins are mysterious. One thing they have determined, however: “We are fairly certain we have over a million burials within this cemetery. It’s large, and it’s dense,” says the project’s director, Kerry Muhlestein of Brigham Young University. Dubbed Fag el-Gamous, the grounds are full of bodies that date to between the 1st and 7th centuries AD, Live Science reports. One of the most fascinating discoveries by Milstein, was a ancient book of songs that people would sing as they enshrouded the newly deceased in long strips of cloth. Archaeologists now believe that this verifies the origin of “wrap music”, but the Congressional Black Caucus, and the NAACP say they plan on challenging that conclusion.
