The jade box is a box with a lid, made of the best jade and covered with Egyptian hierloglyphs. It is kept in the Major Treasure Room.

Fictional History

For centuries the jade box, which contained the schematics of the Pyramid of Cheops at Giza, was in the custody of the descendants of the architect of the Pyramid of Cheops who had settled down on the Red Sea coast in modern day Sudan. It was handed over for safekeeping to the 10th Phantom by the village chief, Ahmed Ben Salim in 1734. The 10th Phantom hid it in a hollow in the nearby stone pillars called Hamata El Banat while trying to escape from Nubian bandits. It was recovered by the 21st Phantom and placed in the Major Treasure Room.
