Read the excerpt from “egyptian tombs: a grave matter.”

from the twenty-fifth century bce, pharaohs’ tombs were located inside grand pyramids. the pyramids served as giant grave markers; however, they also served as treasure markers for grave robbers. these wicked people would strip the tombs bare of all valuables. then they would sell the stolen items for a large amount of money. stealing from the dead was bad enough, but for the ancient egyptians, the act also threatened the pharaoh’s afterlife.

based on this excerpt, readers can infer that

stolen goods from the tombs were difficult to sell.
grave robbers were unconcerned about the pharaohs’ afterlife.
grave robbers were severely punished for their crimes.
none of the pharaohs would experience an eternal afterlife.
