Majority of ancient Egypt is covered by sand. The government gets to decide who can and cannot dig and where.

This, imagine what we will find if they let archaeologists dig near the sphinx and the great pyramid. I went to hercolaneum years ago and they have mapped an entire city with lidar but they cannot dig it up because of the houses built on top of it.
