1 Prof. Jones: The Crook of Osiris represents his authority—
1 Monty: I have heard of Osiris. I did study ancient history, you know.
2 Minnesota Jones: What are you two doing up so early?!
3 Monty: Dad got me up to—
3 Minnesota Jones: Get a head start on breakfast without me!
4 Monty: No, not at all.
4 Prof. Jones: Actually, that thought did cross my mind.

I was going to have Professor Jones explain all about the myth of Osiris for the benefit of the comic readers, but I realised this was silly because Monty would of course already know all of this stuff.

So if you want to know about Osiris, look it up yourself! Ah, the sacrifices I make for the integrity of the comic!

In other news, just a couple of weeks ago there was interesting new archaeological news from Tintagel! Evidence of an actual royal palace dating from the the 6th century! Could it be King Arthur's Castle itself?!

This is just a stone's throw from where Monty and his father and grandfather are staying. You can see their hotel in the top photo of the article - it's the most prominent building in the background. Clearly they are really on to something, well ahead of their time!
