Pyramid puzzle help!

[Plavalaguna]

I have been trying for an hour now and I can't get it. The puzzle in the room with the dung beetles. I can't figure it out. Any help?

To get rid of dung beetles, first you need some dung. :) I had to look that one up in walkthrough myself because I missed just one small thing...

A little hint for starters: Mary, Tugator.

A full solution:
- Get some treats from the heap on Tugator (need to finish Chantal's tea party first, of course).
- Go to Mary and feed the treats to Ivo's hyppogriff, then tell her that there's a lot more nearby.
- Go back to Tugator and get the dung (eww! (c))
- In pyramid, use the dung with the big stone ball.
- Put the long plank into the pit at an angle so that the beetles can reach the stone ball.

Thanks for replying. I actually got that part. After you clear it a puzzle game that nate can play shows up. He says behind it is a treasure.

I'm not sure what you mean. The only "puzzle game" I know there is in the next room, but then I don't get what's that about "treasure behind it". :) Anyway, that one I've just won by trying a lot, though there should be some other way which I haven't found.

But if you somehow mean just the door behind the big stone, then I guess you didn't free Ivo yet? Opening that door is easy, but you need 3 characters for that.

I don't recall it exactly, but I remember this:

1. Put the stoneball in front of you in the hole to the north
2. Move the Golem to the right side of the field by attracting him
3. Move around the golem back to your starting position
4. Cross the one way passage left of the starting position to get to the north
5. If done correctly, you should be able, to avoid the golem on the upmost row and get to the present.
6. Enjoy the ... erm ... sweet sight...

Umm... how come I just finished the game and still don't understand a word what's that about? :D I haven't seen any golems there, except the one in the burial chamber, who just stands there and watches my movements...

[matscher80]

In the dark Chamber to the right is a spot on the wall where Tut mentions, that it is a deposit for present for the kings concubine. He also says, that it is a puzzle aka a mini-game. Only problem is: When you try to fiddle around with it, he screams in your ear because he doesn't like you to open it.
So after you reached the burial chamber and got rid of the little screamer: go back to the puzzle and voila, now you can try to solve it. :o)

@ matscher80 Do you mean in the room where the dung beetles were? I can't find the spot...

[matscher80]

The chamber, that is dark, when you enter the pyramid. On the left wall.
