Fifteen miles south of Cairo lies the site of a royal graveyard...and an ancient crime scene. When archaeologists discovered a 4,000-year-old burial chamber there, still sealed with a 10-ton capstone, they hoped to uncover a preserved body and perhaps even treasure. Instead, they found the tomb had been robbed. Now, experts must find out how the seemingly unopened chamber was disturbed and reveal the identity of the royal figure buried there.

The series about Pyrus is a julekalender series broadcast on the Danish television station TV2 at Christmas time in Denmark. The series is about Pyrus, a nisse or tomten, who lives under the National Archives of Denmark with another nisser named Kandis and Gyldengrød. Gyldengrød is the nissearchevist and Pyrus and Kandis are his two trainees. The human archevist is called Birger Bertramsen and he also has a trainee, a young woman called Josefine Brahe. Bertramsen Brahe are not only colleagues; they are also father and daughter. The julekalender is about the History of Denmark and the humans and the nisser are both studying Denmark's history, though in different ways. The nisser can conjure themselves into history books and gather information from the historical persons inside the book. The series contains four tales and one movie about Pyrus and his friend. The first, from 1994, was called Alletiders Jul, followed by Alletiders Nisse, broadcast in 1995; Alleiders Julemand, broadcast in 1997 Alletiders Eventyr, broadcast in 2000; and Pyrus på Pletten, premiered Christmas Eve 2000.

The Twelve Dreams Of The Sun was a concert held by musician Jean Michel Jarre on the Pyramids of Giza, Egypt starting on December 31, 1999 and carrying overnight to January 1, 2000. It was attended by 120,000 people. The concert consisted of two parts, the Main Concert and a Sunrise Concert. The concert cost approximately $9,500,000 and it originated when Jean-Michel Jarre was contacted by the Egyptian president Hosni Mubarak with a special project to celebrate the dawn of the new Millennium at the foot of the only remaining monument of the original 7 Wonders of the World - the Great Pyramids. Jarre's team had developed giant projections to be displayed on the faces of the Great Pyramids, however a heavy cloud of fog made the pyramids almost invisible, so most of the projections were discarded. Parts of the concert were broadcast live on TV stations around the world.
