Daniel was excited. SG1 had just found this planet with many old artifacts. He had gotten permission to dig for mare while Mitchell, Sam and Teal'c went looking for life. He was half hoping they didn't find any so he could keep digging.
After an hour with no luck, he was about to give up when he found a blue stone. He tried to lift it but saw that it was attached to something. He brushed away dirt and sand to reveal a drawing of the eye of Ra, yet somehow it was different.
"Uh… guys?" he called over the radio. "Come back."
"We're still trying to find life, Jackson," Mitchell called back.
"Well, stop for a while and come back."
"What did you find?" Sam asked.
"You won't believe me unless you see it."
"Why won't we believe you?"
"I found a painting of the eye of Ra."
There was a long pause. Finally, "We're on our way."
When they found Daniel, he was on his knees, dirt everywhere around him. "Hey guys," he said as they approached.
"Been busy, Daniel?" Sam asked.
"Yeah. I found more drawings of the eye. Looks like multiple Goa'ulds lived here. At least three."
"Which Goa'ulds, Daniel Jackson?" Teal'c asked.
"Well, I found the symbols of Ra, Osiris and Nephthys.."
"Who's that last one?" Cameron asked.
"She was the Egyptian goddess of the dead. We haven't met her yet."
"So could she still be here?" Sam asked. "I mean, we know Ra and Osiris are dead but we never encountered… what's her name?"
"Nephthys and it's entirely possibleshe's here. Do you feel her presence?" Daniel asked Sam, remembering that she had that ability.
"Not at this moment, but it doesn't mean she's not here."
"Ok, well, why don' we keep looking for life and Jackson, you keep digging," Mitchell said.
They all nodded and went back to work.
