It reveals the reason the Egyptians built the pyramids, it's the first written description of any religion, and it is the likely source of the 10 Commandments! This feature-length special follows THE EGYPTIAN BOOK OF THE DEAD from creation around 1800 BC near the site of the Egyptian city of Thebes, to rediscovery (and theft) in 1887 AD.
