Traps are Only The Beginning! Egyptian Ingenuity

Presented by Jonathan Davis

Don’t become the next victim during an excavation! This panel will discuss the traps that are commonly associated with Egyptian tombs and separate fact from Hollywood fiction. How construction techniques changed and what counter-theft strategies were used to protect the pharaoh in the afterlife. Traps from other ancient tombs around the world will also be considered in case your Egyptian expeditions lead to new tomb explorations.
