Al-Mummia plot
"The day when the years are counted"
For centuries, the leaders of an Arab tribe have claimed the right to the royal Egyptian burial ground of the 21st Dynasty, which has not yet been discovered by archaeology. The location of and access to the burial vaults are communicated verbally from leader to leader. The treasures of the graves are a source of income for the tribe, especially in times of famine. Archeology and the police are left in the dark when they seize an artifact belonging to the as-yet-undiscovered catacombs of the 21st Dynasty. When two brothers come into possession of the tribe's secret after their father's death, they revolt against the looting of the tombs.
