The traps in ancient tombs were usually mysterious and magical settings designed to prevent the invasion of grave robbers and other criminals. Although some ancient tombs were indeed set up with traps, not all ancient tombs had traps. Some tombs may be simple traps and obstacles, while others may use complex mechanical and electronic devices. In novels, the traps in ancient tombs were often highly intelligent and creative, able to come up with all kinds of wonderful settings. These mechanisms could not only stop grave robbers but also protect and display the funerary objects. Therefore, the traps in the ancient tombs in novels were usually fictional, but some of the traps in the ancient tombs existed in reality.
