Grabräuber, Mumien und Pharaonen...Das alte Ägypten ist ein Phänomen für die Wissenschaft und ein beständiger Quell neuer Hypothesen und abenteuerlicher Theorien. Die vorliegende Hördokumentation beschäftigt sich mit dem Alltag des Pharaonenvolkes, von der Einigung unter- und Oberägyptens über den Pyramidenbau bis zum Einfluss der Römer. Wir betrachten eingehend die Ägyptomanie Bonapartes und die Wiederkehr dieses Kultes durch Carters Weltsensation, der Entdeckung des unberührten Königsgrabes Tutenchamuns.
