As is commonly known, the excavation of cultural relics and historical sites is no easy task, especially when it comes to thorough excavations rather than the more superficial sample verification that Leonard Ethan had previously undertaken.
Take a simple example, it took three months just to clean out King Tutankhamun's tomb back in the day, and a further ten to transport all the unearthed cultural relics to Cairo!
However, it's worth mentioning that the considerable length of time required to investigate a burial chamber of mere tens of square meters is not solely due to the abundance of items in the chamber and the complexity of the archaeological process.
According to historical records, the most unfortunate aspect for those excavators back then was that they ran out of funding halfway through the standard excavation process, forcing them to temporarily abandon their work to seek additional sponsorship.
