4,500-year-old Egyptian dress, painstakingly reassembled from approximately 7,000 beads, was found in an undisturbed tomb in Giza, Egypt. The dress is believed to have belonged to a female contemporary of King Khufu (2589-2566 BC). Although the original strings had disintegrated over the years, the beads remained in their original positions, enabling an accurate reconstruction. While the color of the beads had faded, they were originally blue and turquoise. Initially thought to have been worn for a dancing ritual, the dress's heavy weight suggested otherwise after assembly. Archaeologists now speculate that it may have been worn during funerals.
