The main architect of the Pharaoh, plus the Greek scholar who visited Egypt for studying geometry, and the pharaoh's main wife, the beautiful Nefertari, will teach Caius the principles of geometry. After an impressive narration on the effort of the Egyptians in the building of their great monuments, Caius will participate in this effort, with the calculations of area and volume of the pyramids. In the famous battle of Kadesh, an important loca-tion in present day Syria, between the two largest eastern powers of that period, the time traveller will help the great pharaoh to win the battle against the Hittite army. How? Aiding in the construction of traps, where he will use his newly acquired knowledge of geometry.
