Are you looking for the cost as it was in a specific geological area in 930BC? If so you might have more luck with a specialist in that field for that period, Egyptologist or whatever? Sorry I can't be more help - others may well be! SkyMonkey

Not sure what the currency would be (inflation adjusted for three thousand years) but you might be looking at 10 heads of cattle...? Just out of curiosity, why?
