QWhy did the Mondoshawan take the stones from the temple in Egypt?
ARight before the leader of the Mondoshawan opens the secret chamber in the temple he says that "...war is coming, stones not safe on Earth anymore." He probably means that, given the year of 1914, that World War I might spread to the region where the temple stands and the secret chamber and the stones could be discovered. Additionally, World War II is in the future, barely 20 years hence -- Nazi Germany sought to seize control of Northern Africa, as did Fascist Italy & the temple could be destroyed during that time as well.

Korben and Leeloo, together with Father Vito Cornelius (Ian Holm) and interstellar radio personality Ruby Rhod (Chris Tucker), must retrieve four elemental stones in order to trigger the fifth element that will defeat the Great Evil. However, ruthless businessman Jean-Baptiste Emanuel Zorg (Gary Oldman) and his team of mercenary Mangalores are also searching for the stones, and they will stop at nothing to get them.
