"Dead Egyptian Blues"
http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/05305/598373.stm
A daresay that thousands of people already know this song, but it was new to me! I found it whilst looking for something else: "Michael Smith, the great singer/songwriter from Detroit, was inspired after seeing the King Tut exhibition in 1985. From the disc Michael Smith/Love Stories". And the song goes . . .
Oh, Mister Tut, they love the mask
But do they love you honey sweetheart don't ask
Where's those baby browns and that pearly smile
That smile that drove 'em wild by the early Nile
The rest of the lyrics are on the above web page, for anyone with the right spirit of adventure.

Point & click adventure ANKH
http://home.nestor.minsk.by/game/news/2005/11/0315.html
"If you like movies like Shrek, Ice Age and Robots – then ANKH might just be your cup of tea. A humourous Point and Click adventure game set in a 3D graphic environment with a funny and romantic story in a mystical and inspiring setting with numerous original locations and characters. Maybe Assil shouldn't have stolen the key to the Great Pyramid to celebrate a party with his friends. Then he would have never caught this curse that will erase his life within a few hours. But then he wouldn't have found the magic Ankh either, and he would have never met the woman of his dreams, this rebellious and at the same time mysterious girl, and never would these two have stumbled into the adventure of their life".
