+1 to D
A: discovering that a pharaoh who had ruled in the last days of Egypt was buried with fewer artifacts than their -- Most prominent result has been... discovering? Also, subject verb disagreement.
B: the discovery that pharaohs who had ruled in the last days of Egypt were not buried with as many arti-facts as their -- hold
C: to discover that pharaohs, which ruled in the last days of Egypt, was buried with fewer artifacts than their -- subject-verb disagreement, "who" instead of "which"
D: the discovery that pharaohs who ruled in the last days of Egypt were buried with fewer artifacts than were their -- hold
E: to discover that a pharaoh who ruled in the last days of Egypt was buried with fewer artifacts than were his
Between B and D, I think D is clearer and B embellishes the meaning a little bit. "Not as many" can mean more or fewer artifacts. It's slightly more vague and therefore should be dropped.
