On a wall in Egypt tales are told in pictures and symbols engraved upon the surface. The story told here is of a small kingdom, a people with a long nomadic history starting to build cities, and temples. The small kingdom of Rebu is over-run by the superior Egyptian army, the king is killed, the queen dies by her own hand. One hundred of the fallen citizens are taken back to Egypt as slaves. Unknown to the Egyptians among the captives are the prince Amuba and his faithful general Jethro. The people that Amuba and Jethro met in Egypt include the high Priest of Osiris, the priest's family, and a minor Egyptian Prince named Moses. There are many differences between the people of the region but few are as serious as the ones based on religion. This excellent story will entertain as well as show a realistic picture of life in those days.
