Up ahead Jack saw a camp full of tents. Men, women, boys and girls were scurrying everywhere, carrying maps, tools and small objects. Some were sitting at tables, cataloging finds. Others were sifting through sand. It was like a factory; a factory for artifact-hunting.

‘Nice work, everyone!’ a man was shouting from another tent. ‘Remember, whatever we find, we get to keep – I mean, turn over to the museum.’

Jack reckoned that must be Salama Massri. But he couldn’t see him yet.

‘We need to find ten more artifacts today,’ the man was bellowing. ‘And you know I don’t like to be disappointed.’

The hired hands scurried around even faster. One of the boys bumped into another, causing him to drop what he was working on.

‘Careful!’ the man roared.

The frightened boy picked up his tools and ran off.

‘Everything in this valley is valuable, even the smallest bit of grit,’ the man said, stepping out of the tent and smiling at his workers.

As he did so, the sunlight bounced off his teeth, sending out a blinding ray of light. Jack quickly shielded his eyes with his hand. When the man closed his mouth, the light disappeared. It was then that Jack realized who it was. He nearly fainted on the spot.
