Secrets of the Mega-Tomb

It began with the discovery of a giant coffin while excavating a burial chamber near Egypt's famous Step Pyramid. But further digging opened an underground labyrinth, a mega-tomb filled with over 100 coffins filling every inch of space. Burying all these people must have required a massive operation...so who was behind it? Filmed with unprecedented access, we join archeologists as they make each ground-breaking find and follow them on their mission to solve a 2,500-year-old mystery that could change what we know about Egyptian history.

It belonged to a prominent Judicial Tallyman named Pinomis and his family but exploring the burial chamber has raised many questions. Who was this judge? How did he achieve his wealth and status? And why did he choose to spend his eternal afterlife in a tomb only half-built?
