The Adamant Locals

The locals of that area didn’t want people to check the tomb as they believed that this tomb was cursed as it brought down the building. The argument these local people gave was kind of convincing for many people. There was building on that exact spot which was destructed because the new owner wanted to build something else. But then the construction worker stumbled upon a tomb and the construction stopped. Why is that? The locals said that the person who was inside the tomb doesn’t want to get disturbed. But whose tomb was it?
