    Alright so how about we build an air tight enclosure around a small part of the door, just big enough to get, say, a small drone through. A mechanical part of this enclosure would be saws or something to breech the door. Would probably want to draw a vacuum in the enclosure first just in case… maybe the enclosure could act as an airlock so researchers could access the drone for charging, upgrading, repairs, and whatnot?

    I heard of this tomb when I was really young and ever since I’ve kinda used it as an engineering exercise in my head. Sometimes I draw things out for myself but this is the first time I’ve ever told anyone about it lol

      The solution will definitely require one or several bots or drones of some sort, but even the act of getting the bot inside might trigger a trap that damages the room itself. I suppose the archeologists will eventually have to request resources to set up a combined team that involves engineers.
