[(Title)] Egypt archeologists find 4,500-year-old pottery workshop.

CAIRO — Egyptian archeologists have uncovered a pottery workshop dating back some 4,500 years, officials said Thursday, a rare discovery providing a glimpse into daily life from millenia ago.

埃及考古学家表示他们发现了一个约4,500年前的陶工场，这个罕见的发现为人们提供了小窥古人生活的机会。

The find — which included a stone pottery wheel — was made close to the southern city of Aswan during work around the Temple of Kom Ombo on the banks of the Nile River, the Antiquities Ministry said.

他们在尼罗河附近的埃及阿斯旺发现包括一个石陶轮。这个陶工场是在古埃及第四代（公元前2613年至294年间）建造的，一份声明说，当时著名的吉萨金字塔是在同一时期建造的。

The workshop was built during the Fourth Dynasty of ancient Egypt (between 2613 and 2494 BC), a statement said, the same period in which the famous pyramids of Giza were constructed.

"It is one of the rare finds that sheds light on daily life, industrial activities and the development of art in ancient Egypt," Mostafa Waziri, secretary general of Egypt's Supreme Council of Antiquities, said in the statement.

埃及最高古物委员会的秘书长莫斯塔法·瓦齐里在声明中说：“这是罕见的发现之一，它揭示了古埃及的日常生活、工业活动和艺术发展。这一发现表明，在当代人们‘为了满足日常生活需求’时，对工具进行"改进和改造。"

Waziri said the discovery showed "the improvement and adaptation" of tools during the period as people "responded to the demands of daily life". — AFP
