RJ Lindsey portrays Egyptologist James Breasted of the Oriental Institute in Chicago. Dr. Breasted narrates a slide program that tells the story of Howard Carter's 6 year quest to find the Tomb of Tutankamun and he describes the dramatic moment when he first walked into the storage room and saw gold objects everywhere. With many photographs of the artifacts discovered, Dr. Breasted relates their cultural and mystical significance.
