In "The Golden Goblet" by Eloise Jarvis McGraw, the penalty for stealing from tombs was severe, often resulting in death. This harsh punishment reflected the cultural reverence for the dead and the belief that tomb robbers disturbed the peace of the deceased. The protagonist, Ranofer, grapples with the moral implications of theft in the context of ancient Egyptian society, highlighting the tension between survival and respect for the dead.
That Ranofer went to the valley of tombs himself
Well, darling, in "The Golden Goblet," Ranofer's major risk is getting caught snooping around the goldsmith's shop. He's basically playing detective without a license, putting his own neck on the line to uncover the truth about his evil half-brother. It's like playing a game of Clue, but with real-life consequences.
It is the meeting place for Gebu and Wenamon at the entrance to the Valley of the Tombs. Because the Ancient knows this landmark, he and Hequet can find Ranofer and help him after he has already gone followiing the thieves.
It was found in the rock of valley because they didn't want people stealing their gold, and they didn't want anybody to know that it was there.
Well, honey, in chapter 8 of "The Golden Goblet," our boy Ranofer continues to deal with his shady half-brother Gebu and uncovers some sneaky business happening at the goldsmith shop. Let's just say there's more drama than a soap opera, and Ranofer's got a front-row seat to all the shenanigans. So, buckle up and get ready for more twists and turns in ancient Egypt!
