>3,000-year-old Egyptian city
埃及發(fā)現(xiàn)三千年前古城

A group of archaeologists has found the largest ancient city ever discovered in Egypt, dating back 3,000 years.
一隊考古學(xué)家發(fā)現(xiàn)了一座有三千年歷史的埃及古城，是迄今為止在埃及發(fā)現(xiàn)的最大古城。

The city, named "The Rise of Aten," was discovered under the sand on the western bank of Luxor, lead archaeologist Zahi Hawass said in a statement.
首席考古學(xué)家札希?哈瓦斯在一份聲明中稱，他們在盧克索西岸的沙灘下發(fā)現(xiàn)了這座名為"太陽神崛起"的城市。

It dates to the reign of King Amenhotep III, who ruled Egypt between 1391 and 1353 BCE, according to the statement.
聲明稱，這座古城的年代可以追溯到阿蒙霍特普三世的統(tǒng)治時期，阿蒙霍特普三世是公元前1391年到1353年間統(tǒng)治古埃及的法老。

"It was the largest administrative and industrial settlement in the era of the Egyptian empire," Hawass said.
哈瓦斯說："該城是埃及帝國時期最大的行政和工業(yè)基地。"

Archaeologists found the "city's streets flanked by houses," with intact walls up to 10 feet high and "rooms filled with tools of daily life ... left by the ancient residents as if it were yesterday," such as rings, colored pottery vessels, casting molds to make amulets, pots used to carry meat, and tools for spinning, weaving and metal and glass-making.

The team also found a large bakery, "complete with ovens and storage pottery," whose size suggests it was used to cater to a "very large number of workers and employees."
