[QUOTE="Bob Godfrey, post: 229126, member: 136612"] I think it's safe to say that the Pharaohs would have been [i]most[/i] displeased at the prospect of being 'retrieved' along with their grave goods, or they wouldn't have ordered such complex and costly efforts to prevent such and Lara Croft would be unemployed. Our own efforts have screwed up their plans for a comfortable afterlife. Can we discount that on the grounds that all ancient peoples were heathens and didn't understand that their spiritual concepts were ill-founded and that (according to our own beliefs) they really have nothing to lose by being hauled out of their graves and placed on display. Does it (and should it) make a difference if a grave is marked with a cross? . [/QUOTE]
