i dont get this whole tomb thing, really confused, can some one help?
See, this is what we're talking about.
If you are confused, read the entire first post of this thread. Lots of very clear information on the plot, in fact it's everything you need to know.
Btw, what you found is one of the parchments mentioned on the first post.
THE FIRST POST wrote:The fortune teller's phrase has changed to: "I see ancient pharaohs laid at rest." You supposedly need to visit her and see this before moving on.
Then if you play a game of Pyramids, at the end you should see a parchment on the bottom of your screen. This looks to be a clue to rooms as each column has a number, color, symbol, and shape.
If you go the room under the single dot that your parchment describes, you will get an RE which gives you a dirty stone piece. Take that to the toy repair shop and you get a piece on your tablet.
If the dirty stone piece that you get from your trapped room ends up being destroyed by Donny at the Toy Repair Shop (he sometimes has trouble cleaning it for some reason), then all you will need to do is go back to the temple immediately. Do not wait. You will receive a new piece that you can bring to Donny to try cleaning up.

I suggest asking your specific questions. Generic pleas for help with "this tomb thing" are only going to get you (probably progressively snarkier) directions to the first post.
What <i>exactly</i> is confusing you?

plus i was wondering if that image i posted has anything to do with mapping...
I think all of the questions your asking are in the first page of this post, please go there, press ctrl+f, and type in pyramids. It should take you down to the point you are at now, please follow the directions thoroughly.

Exactly, exactly, exactly. What is so hard to get about reading the first page first? I understand people are lazy so from now on I suggest we reply with a generic message stating "Read the first page of this thread for the answer to your question(s)."

where are you getting the symbols from?

Read the first page of this thread for the answer to your question(s).
THE FIRST POST wrote:There are 6 door colors and 4 door shapes. The riddles will only tell you the color and shape of the door you need.
Shapes:
A humble portal of stone (rectangle) [just a regular old door]
Mouth of the river (triangle) [think about it ... the place where a river starts will look like a triangle ... because it starts flowing out]
The aspect of a star (pentagon) [5 sides to a standard star]
Window into the soul (oval) [your eyes are ovalish]
Colors:
Blinding radiance of the sun (yellow) [the sun]
Thunderous clouds obscuring the sky (black) [makes it dark]
The waking dawn on the dunes (red) [at dawn, thing all look red]
Banks of the mighty river (green) [everything is green on the banks]
Kingdom of the lightgiver (blue) [the sky is the sun's (lightgiver's) kingdom ... and it is blue]
Bright guardian of the night (silver) [The moon is sort of silverish]
The combination does not tell you which symbol you need, but does limit your search to 12 possible doors to find your statue in.

Well, I'd give you a hug, but you're in Canada and I'm in Pennsylvania, so... probably wouldn't work so well. Have an internet-hug.
The first thing you should do, if you haven't already, is make a map. There are suggestions and examples in the first post. I did mine by hand, with colored pencils and highlighter, which is a bit messy but easier for me to use. If you're more comfortable with doing it on the computer, that seems like it'd be quicker and it will definitely be neater.
But that's really the first step
