Strategy
Compared to the Temple it replaces, the Burial Tomb is quite better, providing additional Happiness for the empire, and costing no maintenance. The downside is that an enemy will gain more Gold when capturing this city.
Historical Info:
The Egyptians raised ancestor-worship to heights unmatched before and since, and much of civilization's wealth and creative energy was expended in the construction of Burial Tombs for deceased relatives. Many such tombs may be found in the Valley of the Kings, across the Nile River from Thebes. These tombs were often stocked with a portion of the wealth of the deceased, making them rich targets for tomb robbers throughout history.
