You definitely added a gem to that. A mandala that represents an ancient culture's view of the cosmos, with a tie in to it's ancient architecture, plus the obvious triangles make up Egyptian pyramids association to link the 2 ancient cultures. Goodness, Dorleac did some research for those costumes!
