I like how the hole is perfectly bird shaped
Somehow reminds me of this
Is it next to a bird? That looks like a bird.
- Unbelievably, the hieroglyph next to the bird is a bee. It's like whoever designed it had never seen a bee, but had them described by someone who knew someone whose cousin was stung by a bee that one time.

  Maybe bees looked different, 5000 years ago on a different continent?
  
  Ah, that makes more sense actually, that thing definitely has more than 2 legs.
Amun, am I going nuts or are the words moving around the slab?
As the prophecy foretold.
Cute, but isn't bird poop errossive AF? Should probably eliminate the infestation.
- Living things > inanimate objects.
  
  We've destroyed their habitat, so they have to go somewhere.
