A Good Bucket.

The Indian gentleman that met them beyond the curtain in the temple had a most striking look about him. Nearly six feet tall in his brinjal coloured turban, his hair and beard shone a resplendent aspirin white against his burnt umber skin. His deep brown eyes set in calamine pink, stood out like an albino on the beach.
They were led across a marble floor with a grand design at it's centre, a frieze of interlocking keys surrounded an opulent representation of a tiger hunt, the doomed tiger caught mid-lunge by a volley of shot fired from the back of an elephant by a long forgotten Maharajah.
"the key thing, on the floor, whats that supposed to mean"
whispered the Archaeologist's assistant.
"SILENCE!"
The Indian gentleman's voice was as commanding as his appearance.
They were led outside through an ornate door with almost Byzantine like piercings cut into the ancient blue black wood. Across the courtyard was a trench, well more like a moat half full of water,
"under the surface, you will find what you are after"
proclaimed the Indian gentleman, before he about-faced and made his way silently back to the temple.
"In future only speak when spoken to, understand"
"This is one of the first sound principles of archeology"
"Whats the second" replied his young assistant.
"Always bring a good bucket".
