It's ok but that's about all I can say.

Nothing majorly novel or interesting happens, maybe i had A little chuckle that's about it.

I do enjoy Ancient Egyptian settings so it gets points for that aspect.

revolutionary discover
Kirpianuscus9 December 2017
a camel. an archaeologist. and a pyramid and, sure, a revolutionary discover. changing everything . at the first sigh, off course. it is not easy to say the source of seduction for this short film. the humor, the irony about technology, the nostalgia for the early age of archaeology or for the conspiracy theories about Ancient Egypt ? each. and all. because it is one of examples of admirable use of imagination for a more than seductive result.

So That's How They Did it!!

A camel, an archaeologist, and some pretty wild events, including an ancient remote control are part of this short animated film. I'm not sure of the point, other than it provides a new explanation as to how the pyramids came to be--or not. It has some great animation. The camel is a wonderful character.

extremely funny animation short unveiling The Secret of the Pyramids
myriamlenys18 July 2019
An archaeologist, a camel, a tablet and a pyramid are the basic ingredients for this delightful little concoction. (Hope, by the way, I'm spelling "archaeologist" right.) Prepare for a delightful little short which pokes fun not so much at Ancient Egyptian civilization, but rather at modern man's attempts to make sense - or nonsense - of it. It's a triumph of wit, silliness and imagination.

It reminded me somewhat of an old newspaper cartoon, where two bemused archaeologists have just translated a recondite Ancient Egyptian message carved deep into stone : "It says, 'Please do not fold or bend'".

I don't know about you but I could watch that camel for hours on end...
