Cover of Lord Carnarvon & Howard Carter: Tutankhamen & The Discovery of His Tomb (ePUB)

The discovery of Tutankhamen’s tomb in 1922 aroused unprecedented excitement in the field of Egyptology. In the tomb of a "colourless youth, who reigned for a few years only" were found unmatched riches, the study of which has led to numerous insights into ancient Egyptian civilization. The author of this fascinating text discusses the tomb’s discovery, the significance of its discovery and contents, tomb-robbers, and the ethics of desecration.
