Basma and Hasama found a mummy.The mummy was super stupid. I hate the look of the mummy because the reason is mummies in Egypt and Cairo are wrapped with like what is it called? Oh, yeah toilet paper. Yuck!!!!

I think that the only treasure that may be in teh tomb is the mummy of a pharaon, like Tutankhamun or Nefertiti.
Cheerfulmusic2I think that is appallingly correct but there was lots of good and gems until some tom robers came and stole some of the stuf from the toms but some times they get grapes in the pyramid and paw away the end!!!
