An archaeologist works on parts of the second solar boat of Pharaoh Khufu at the restoration laboratory located in Giza, Egypt on March 29, 2017. Egypt opened its largest on-site antiquities laboratory to restore Pharaoh Khufu's second solar boat. King Khufu was a famous fourth dynasty Pharaoh who built the great Khufu Pyramid. His solar boat was designed to ferry him to the afterlife according to ancient Egyptian beliefs. The second solar boat of King Khufu was detected in 1987 in a large pit to the west of the first solar boat. Both boats lie on the southern side of the Khufu Pyramid at Giza. (Xinhua/Ahmed Gomaa)
