Hi Richard, Well, some of the Egyptian and gods and goddesses names are exactly the same in English as ancient Egyptian like Osiris and Isis for example. However, for the god Set hostorians don't all agree on the proper name for him. It really depends on who translated the name, and I guess there is some tricky reading of the heirogliphs for his name. Though, most historians refer to him commonly as Set. At this point I am just brain storming ideas for the Tomb Hunter game. I like Egyptian history as well as the next Historian, but that is but one possible game plot. I can easily see my new Tomb Hunter character exploring deep in some African or South American jungle, looking through some ancient mountains, searching a desert, etc... Bottom line, our history is filled with thousands of quests for some mystical and mythical item or place like Atlantice, the Spear of Destany, Arc of the Covenant, Excalibur, fountain of youth, just to name some of the more popular choices. I could write an entire series of games surrounding this game character if the games become that popular. If I run out of the usual suspects I can venture into more Sci-fi relms seaking some long lost alien artifact left hear by some alien race that visited our planet in ancient times. Basically, there is allot of options here.
