commissioner?s daughter takes an amulet inscribed with the wadjet of Ra
from a work table at the site. In the present day, Egyptologist Daniel
Jackson is approached at a symposium by an old woman wearing the Ra
necklace and is offered the chance to translate Ancient Egyptian
hieroglyphs that may prove his theories that the pyramids weren't built
in the 4th Dynasty. Curious, Jackson accepts before being given tickets
