本期内容：
Egyptian archaeologists have discovered 17 mummies in desert catacombs in Minya province, the antiquities 1 ministry 2 announced Saturday. Archaeologists found the non-royal mummies in a series of corridors after following the trail of burial shafts 3 in the district of the central Egyptian province. For the cash-strapped Egyptian government, the discoveries are a boon 4 from the country's glorious past as it struggles to attract tourists scared off by a series of 1slamist militant 5 attacks.
