No, it’s archaeology. The graverobbing was done multiple times during antiquity, and this is no longer a grave.

One of the towelhead caliphs tried it during the Middle Ages (which is inspecific, because muzzies are still medieval), had a lot of manpower working on just the smallest of the three large ones, and after six months gave it up. The scar is there, but they barely made a scratch. And demolition is easier and faster than construction, which means that the non-Arabs living in Egypt at the end of the Neolithic were better at building than chronlogically medieval Arab muzzies were at demolition.

Pharaonic inbreeding makes Moslems look positively exogamous.

The Victrola on the table before Pharaoh certain seems to have made an impression.

No, its my observation that they show us a site that seems fully restored and that takes a LONG time.

IOW, you pulled the ten year figure out of your ass, and for no apparent reason.
Five years ago a different tomb was found near this site. This tomb was more recently discovered.

And your shear genius deduced it was instantly restored.
My ten year figure is an educated guess based upon how long it has taken to unearth and restore other sites.

No, what you did was imply knowledge that the discovery was made ten years ago, and that’s all you did. And there was no inciting reason for you to do so.

The “inciting reason” was the pristine photo accompanying the “new discovery” announcement.
Is this your weekend away from managing daycare?

I wouldn’t want to work daycare, I have you and others just like you, all from under your respective bridges.

He could probably get a job as a curator out in the Real World.

Your delusional authority has no basis in reality.
In fact, YOU are the troll who jumped from under the bridge to lecture.
