Advanced Machinery Packing Cases
The cases store Sutekh's escape rocket components—non-Egyptian machinery disguised as ancient artifacts. Sarah sees hollow cases concealing advanced equipment, their contents alien to classical Egyptology. When opened, they reveal anti-gravity drives and servitor bodies shaped like humanoids, designed to power a rocket beyond Earth's reach. The thin wooden panels barely conceal the machine's true nature, betraying Sutekh's millennia-old plan with every exposed component.
