Title: Tomb robbers
Description: Filled with fear and excitement, three men hurriedly dug their way through a dark passage. They were in search of treasure inside a dead king s tomb deep beneath the desert sands. If successful, they would be rewarded with gold, jewels, precious oils, and other treasures. If discovered, their punishment would be a terrible death! Why did some ancient Egyptians risk their lives to steal from the dead? And what tricks did tomb and pyramid builders use to hide burial chambers from grave robbers?
