IMO that no one robbed it seems significant to me. I mean either he was well respected or he had lot of bodyguards on retainer for his afterlife journey that the grave remained undisturbed.

For that type of burial a lot of people knew what was there so why not go get it if everyone was as poor as the author portrayed in the story?

great point! ...again, it sounds very similar to the modern class warfare garbage, about how the wage disparities are so great...
...i liked the old days, when people kept their science separate from their politics.

and the AGW hoax is the ultimate example. we pay more for electricity etc. because the EPA is fighting global warming which doesn’t exist (it’s been cooling since at least 2003 - “hide the decline”) and which if it did exist, wasn’t caused by CO2 (it was MUCH higher, just 80 years ago), and yet we are told everything short of zebras losing their stripes to global warming.
yet they have to drop hundreds of rural sites, and put urban ones on asphalt in urban heat islands, and actually REDUCE temperatures in 100 year old records,
to create a non-existent global warming slope.
...it is the greatest most costly hoax in human history.
