Abstract In the 2019 excavation season, a new sector (Sector 36) was opened in the Upper Necropolis one of the most important and extensive area of Oxyrhynchus that covers a very wide chronological framework: from the Saite period to the Christian-Byzantine period, including the Persian and Ptolemaic-Roman times (664 BC7-th century). The archaeological works in this sector have continued during the years 2022-2020 and the results have been very satisfactory. Here we have found several Ptolemaic-Roman tombs built with limestones blocks, many mummified female and male individuals, some of them cover with a thin gold leaf and with or without polychrome cartonnages, golden tongues and mud seals with figures of animals, divinities and inscriptions.
