Relic Hunter (1999)

Episode Overview

In 1425 B.C. Egypt, Sydney and Nigel arrive in Cairo to hunt down the true tomb raider. Their investigation takes a turn when Sydney's old friend Bruce Farrow is wrongfully accused of stealing from the tomb of Thutmose III, including a legendary diamond said to have originated from a meteor. This theft attracts mercenary Avery Ko, a rival Relic Hunter. The chase leads them to Amsterdam, where the gem is set to be cut and sold. Sydney, Nigel, and Bruce uncover that the stone isn’t actually a diamond; if it’s lasered, it could unleash a catastrophic force, just as the tomb's hieroglyphs warned.
