I missed the article and thought this was some parody (seeing as how it was 'Doctor Who').

With how weird reality is now, I thought they found a cave with proof of the doctor, like a TARDIS painted on the wall or something.

I love how the back wall is decorated like an apothecary shop. Digging the green text at the top.

The doctor’s title of “conjurer of the goddess Serket” means he was “a specialist in poisonous bites,” as research team leader Philippe Collombert, an Egyptologist at the University of Geneva, tells Live Science. The other titles on the sarcophagus are quite rare: “Director of medicinal plants” has only been found on one other ancient Egyptian artifact, and “chief dentist” is also very unusual, Collombert says.

Quite the personality of how it seems. Also, "Chief Dentist" is nice

They do such a good job on the walls, you’d think they could do better with the floors and ceilings.

Also that little wall nook where you can put your TV.
